If you want to delete by index, try splice. For example, the following code removes the element at index 10:
```
splice(@array, 10, 1);

```
If you want to delete by value, then your trick is fine, but grep might be better. For example, the following code deletes 10, which has two digits:
```
@old_array = (1,2,3,4,5,10,6,7,8,9);
@new_array = grep(/^\d$/, @old_array);
[download]
```
