121 ## Remove Elements
122
123 ```C
124 #include <cx/array_list.h>
125
126 void cx_array_remove(CxArray array, size_t index);
127
128 void cx_array_remove_fast(CxArray array, size_t index);
129
130 void cx_array_remove_array(CxArray array, size_t index, size_t n);
131
132 void cx_array_remove_array_fast(CxArray array, size_t index, size_t n);
133 ```
134
135 The functions `cx_array_remove()` and `cx_array_remove_array()` remove one or more elements from the array by shifting the remaining elements by the number of removed elements.
136 The functions `cx_array_remove_fast()` and `cx_array_remove_array_fast()` on the other hand copy elements from the end of the array into the gap to fill the removed elements.
137 Therefore, if the order of the elements does not matter, you can use the fast versions of these functions for better performance.
138
139 > When you specify an `index` that is out-of-bounds or choose a number `n` of elements that would overflow the array,
140 > the above functions only remove as many elements as possible.
141 > So it's safe to use them without any bounds checking.
