Re: How to find and remove duplicate elements from an array?

[simmisam]

A solution that uses Tie::IxHash, a tie-able which preserves the keys of a hash in the order in which they were added:

use Tie::IxHash;

sub removeDuplicates
{
    tie my %tempHash, 'Tie::IxHash';
    $tempHash{$_}++ for @_;
    keys %tempHash;
}

# Remove repeated elements from an array
my @array1 = qw( 4 3 7 4 3 8 9 12 23 43 23 12 );
my @uniqArray = removeDuplicates( @array1 );
print "@uniqArray";
