Namespace:   System.Collections
Assembly:  mscorlib (in mscorlib.dll)

abstract Remove : 
        obj:Object -> unit
override Remove : 
        obj:Object -> unit

Parameters

obj
Type: System.Object

The Object to remove from the ArrayList. The value can be null.

Exception Condition
NotSupportedException

The ArrayList is read-only.

-or-

The ArrayList has a fixed size.

If the ArrayList does not contain the specified object, the ArrayList remains unchanged. No exception is thrown.

This method performs a linear search; therefore, this method is an O(n) operation, where n is Count.

This method determines equality by calling Object.Equals.

In collections of contiguous elements, such as lists, the elements that follow the removed element move up to occupy the vacated spot. If the collection is indexed, the indexes of the elements that are moved are also updated. This behavior does not apply to collections where elements are conceptually grouped into buckets, such as a hash table.

The following code example shows how to remove elements from the ArrayList.
