Remove duplicates from array


// simple java program to remove
// duplicates

class Main
{
// Function to remove duplicate elements
// This function returns new size of modified
// array.
static int removeDuplicates(int arr[], int n)
{
// Return, if array is empty
// or contains a single element
if (n==0 || n==1)
return n;

// Start traversing elements

// If current element is not equal
// to next element then store that
// current element
if (arr[i] != arr[i+1])

// Store the last element as whether
// it is unique or repeated, it hasn't
// stored previously
temp[j++] = arr[n-1];

// Modify original array
for (int i=0; i<j; i++)
