Delete an element from an array

/*
 * C program to delete an element from array at specified position
 */

#include <stdio.h>
#define MAX_SIZE 100
//this code does not literally delete an element 
//this does rewrite the rest of the array over the element to be deleted 
//and reduceing the count by one

int main()
{
    int arr[MAX_SIZE];
    int i, size, pos;

    /* Input size and element in array */
    printf("Enter size of the array : ");
    scanf("%d", &size);
    printf("Enter elements in array : ");
    for(i=0; i<size; i++)

Elements of array after delete are : ");
