Array.nub.3kaya

NAME

Array::nub - Remove repeated elements from a list.

SYNOPSIS

Void nub( var [a] xs, Bool(a, a) eq=equal )

ARGUMENTS

xs The list

eq Optionally, the equality test. Defaults to Builtins.equal(3kaya)

DESCRIPTION

Remove repeated elements from a list in-place. Repeated elements will be removed whether adjacent or not.

 xs = [1,2,3,3,1,2,4,5,2,2,1];
 nub(xs);
 // xs = [1,2,3,4,5]

The name 'nub', incidentally, is borrowed from the Haskell prelude function of the same name, and suggests 'essence'.

Note that the Set(3kaya) module contains types that are often more suited to storing unique values
