I am trying to use this method on a slice of strings - I get this error: "cannot use m[i + 1:] (type []string) as type string in append" It seems to be expecting a string not a slice of strings as the second parameter. Any ideas?

Nvmd - I just realized that "..." was actually apart of the code.

If you use this while iterating m, you will get runtime error: slice bounds out of range. That's what this question is about. You can use m = append(m[:i], m[i+1:]...) to delete an item from a slice but not while you are iterating through it with for i, element := range m.
