Again a code snippet, in this case a simple function to remove an element form an array.
No matter what kind of array you're using, simple numbers or an array of records, or even objects, this function (if adapted to your array type of course) will do the trick.
With objects: do not forget to destroy the removed object!
type
TXArray = array of X;
...
procedure DeleteX(var A: TXArray; const Index: Cardinal);
var
ALength: Cardinal;
i: Cardinal;
begin
ALength := Length(A);
Assert(ALength > 0);
Assert(Index < ALength);
for i := Index + 1 to ALength - 1 do
A := A;
SetLength(A, ALength - 1);
end;
