Find And Remove Duplicate Entries In a Array..??

[cypher175]

What is the best way to find and remove duplicate entries in a Array..??

[Melba23]

cypher175,

_ArrayUnique perhaps?

[cypher175]

would there be anyway to have a tooltip display the completion progress on the _ArrayUnique function at all..??

I have a Function that compares thousands of entries and takes upwards of 20+ Mins to finish..

So If i could see like a ( 25% , 50% , 75% , 100% ) type of tooltip during the process I could get an idea of how much is done at any particular time..??

You could copy the function from array udf and modify it to add progress.

[Beege]

You can modify the _ArrayUnique function source and include some progress tracking.

Thats funny.

Im not really sure how I would do that though...

#include <array.au3>
$asArray = StringSplit("gui|gui2|gui_enable|gui|gui_disale|50","|")
_ArrayDisplay($asArray)
$asArray2 = _ArrayRemoveDuplicate($asArray)
_ArrayDisplay($asArray2)
Func _ArrayRemoveDuplicate($fArray)
_ArraySort($fArray,0,0)
Dim $i2 = 0
Dim $duplicateindex[1]
For $index = 1 to UBound($fArray) - 1
  If $fArray[$index] = $fArray[$index-1] Then
   $duplicateindex[$i2] = $index
   $i2 = $i2 + 1
   ReDim $duplicateindex[$i2]
  EndIf
Next
For $dupindex = 0 To UBound($duplicateindex) - 1
_ArrayDelete($fArray,$duplicateindex[$dupindex])
Next
Return $fArray
EndFunc
