Delete an element in a dynamic array?

That is what I meant, which is conveniently also what the variable "data" in your function represents, so that's nice.

Okeeey then now I understand it thanks a lot! I will try to get the delete_column to work now and I will come soon if I have problems, but I think the idea is pretty similar.. Thanks again!

Ok got the delete_column function coded now but I just have one doubt, here it is:

Code:

/* delete_column: delete column n from table t */
void delete_column(table *t, int n){
    int i, j;
    --(t->cols);
    char ***data = malloc(t->rows * sizeof(char **));
    if(data == NULL){
        printf("\n\t\tERROR: Out of memory\n");
        printf("\n\t\tPress [Enter] to exit...\n");
        getchar();
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }
    for(i = 0; i < t-> rows; ++i){
        data[i] = (char **)malloc(t->cols * sizeof(char *));
        if(data[i] == NULL){
            printf("\n\t\tERROR: Out of memory\n");
            printf("\n\t\tPress [Enter] to exit...\n");
            getchar();
            exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
        }
        for (j = 0; j < t->cols; j++){
            data[i][j] = (char *)malloc(NAME_MAX_LEN * sizeof(char));
            if(data[i][j] == NULL){
                printf("\n\t\tERROR: Out of memory\n");
                printf("\n\t\tPress [Enter] to exit...\n");
                getchar();
                exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
            }
        }
    }
    for(i = 0; i < t->rows; ++i){
        for(j = 0; j < n; ++j)
            data[i][j] = t->cell[i][j];
        for(j = n; j < t->cols; ++i)
            data[i][j] = t->cell[i][j+1];
        free(t->cell[i][n]);
    }
    free(t->cell);
    t->cell = data;
}

My doubt is should I add the line I added in red? it isn't there now and it seems to work perfectly but I don't know if it could be a memory leak not adding them and I should just free each of the strings for the cell that is being removed in each row?
Thanks guys!

That is memory that you no longer want, so freeing is appropriate.

Hahah ok that's what I thought
Thanks then! everything is working as expected thank you very much for the help!
