Remove First 16 Bytes?

Question

How would I go about removing a number of bytes from a byte array?

Answer 1

I will also mention - depending on how you plan to use the results, often, an alternative approach is to use ArraySegment to just access the remaining portion of the array. This prevents the need to copy the array, which can be more efficient in some usage scenarios:

ArraySegment segment = new ArraySegment(originalArray, 16, originalArray.Length-16);

// Use segment how you'd use your array...
