table.remove (table [, pos])
Removes from table the element at position pos, shifting down other elements to close the space, if necessary. Returns the value of the removed element. The default value for pos is n, where n is the length of the table, so that a call table.remove(t) removes the last element of table t. Note that an unsorted table stores values in no particular order, so be sure you really want the 'last element' removed!
