Purpose: Expand your knowledge of Java by learning
about boolean logic.
  * Given a non-empty string and an int n, 
  * return a new string where the char 
  * at index n has been removed. 
  * The value of n will be a valid 
  * index of a char in the original string 
  * (i.e. n will be in the range 0..str.length()-1 inclusive).
