Wow, that is smart, although is seems to be overkill.....
I guess 'duplicated' is better than O(n^2), is it really?

Yes as it hashes, but the overhead on short vectors is high since it always hashes.

unique(c(1:10,1)) gives 1:10 (i.e. unique values), is there any
method to get only 2:10 (i.e. values that are unique) ?


The easiest might be:

Vec
[1]  1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10  1

Vec[table(Vec) == 1]
[1]  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9 10

I don't think that is right: you are relying on recycling indices.  Try

Vec <- c(1,1:10)
Vec[table(Vec) == 1]

which should be the same.

I was about to write

tab <- table(Vec)
names(tab)[tab==1]

but that gives a character vector.  Here's a different way:

Vec[rowSums(outer(Vec, Vec, "=="))==1]
