change the output to string, compare if its equal to -1 if so replace with empty string

Try reading the array backwards until you hit something that isn't -1. Create a new array of the appropriate size, and read everything up to that point into it.

is top source code how change and add code to execute remove -1-1

In your stringInts(int[] ints) method, test if each value is -1. Only add it to the output String if it is not -1.
