Hi,
How to remove the coming duplication,
Here I wrote one (not working):
a=['2', '5', '7', '5', '5']
[...]
I wish to get a is [2,5,7,5]
just remove the coming duplication, not unique the list.
a = [2, 5, 7, 5, 5]
b = a[0:1] # slice of the first item only
for x in a[1:]: # slice of the second item to the end
if x != b[-1]:
b.append(x)
gives b = [2, 5, 7, 5] as requested.
