Delete Element From Array

In this blog, you will learn, how to delete an element from an array.

Introduction

• In this blog, I am going to explain about the delete elements from an array. 

Software Requirements

• Turbo C++ OR C.
  

Programming

#include < stdio.h >
int main()
{
    int array[100], position, c, n;
    printf("Enter number of elements in array\n");
    scanf("%d", & n);
    printf("Enter %d elements\n", n);
    for (c = 0; c < n; c++) scanf("%d", & array[c]);
    printf("Enter the location where you wish to delete element\n");
    scanf("%d", & position);
    if (position >= n + 1) printf("Deletion not possible.\n");
    else
    {
        for (c = position - 1; c < n - 1; c++) array[c] = array[c + 1];
        printf("Resultant array is\n");
        for (c = 0; c < n - 1; c++) printf("%d\n", array[c]);
    }
    return 0;
}

Explanation

• From the programming, it is understood, that deleting an element of an array does not affect the array size.
