Remove the bucket represented by the int from array

[barney]

Hi, I need to take a char array and an int as parameters and remove the bucket represented by the int from the array. this is what i have so far

static char[] removeArray (char[] x, int e)
  {
    char[] result = new char[x.length-1];
    for (int i = 0; i < result.length; i++)
    {
      if (i == e)
      	result[e] = 
      if (i < e)
      	result[i] = x[i];
      if (i > e)
      	result[i] = x[i+1];
    }
  }

I'm not sure about this part

if (i == e)
    result[e] =

how do i tell it to get rid of the char at int e?
Thanks

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String s = "Hello World";
        char[] chars = s.toCharArray();
        print(chars, "  chars");
        char[] reduced = removeElement(chars, 9);
        print(reduced, "reduced");
    }


    static char[] removeElement(char[] x, int e)
    {
        char[] result = new char[x.length-1];
        for (int i = 0, k = 0; i < x.length; i++)
        {
            if (i == e)
                continue;
            result[k++] = x[i];
        }
        return result;
    }

    private static void print(char[] array, String s)
    {
        System.out.print(s + " = [");
        for(int j = 0; j < array.length; j++)
        {
            System.out.print(array[j]);
            if(j < array.length-1)
                System.out.print(", ");
        }
        System.out.print("]\n");
    }
