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'.
