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'.
