Question
I need to write an array that can remove the middle element of an array if the array is odd length and remove the middle 2 elements if the array is of even length.
my current method looks like this but does not work. Where am I going wrong?
public static int[] removeMiddle(int[] values) {
        boolean even = false;
        int temp = values[0];
        int temp2 = values[0];
        int count = values.length;
        if( count % 2 == 0){
            even = true;
        }
        for (int i = 1; i < values.length-1; i++){
            if (even = true){
                temp = values.length / 2;
                temp2 = values.length / 2 + 1;
            }else if(even = false){
                temp = values.length / 2;
                values[temp] = values.length-1;
                count--;
            }
        }
