How do I remove an element from a Java array?

+4
−1

One way to remove element from array is to replace element with zero. Below is a rough snippet I am sharing:

int N = sc.nextInt();
int pos = sc.nextInt();
int A[] = new int[N];
if(pos == i) {
    A[i]=0;
}

But the problem is that size of the array remains the same still. You have only replaced the element with zero.

What extra steps we need to perform along with this?

Complementing the answer from E_net4‭ below, if removing is a common operation that needs to be done lots of times, consider using a List instead of an array.
