Hello,

I have below list in which I want to remove the repeated list.

Input:

(("gndcore" "P15_VSS3V3")
("vddcore3v3" "P16_VDDI3V3")
("vddcore1v" "vddcore1v0")
("gndcore" "P33")
("gndcore" "P15_VSS3V3")
("vddcore3v3" "P16_VDDI3V3")
)

desired output:

(("gndcore" "P15_VSS3V3") 
("vddcore3v3" "P16_VDDI3V3") 
("vddcore1v" "vddcore1v0") 
("gndcore" "P33") 

)

    Hi Varun,

    If order does not matter then you could use this procedure (rewritten from one that Tom Weeks provided a while ago):

    procedure(CCFremoveDupesFromList(inputList "l") 
      let( ((table makeTable("CCFdupTable" nil)) ) 
        foreach(element inputList 
          table[element] = t
        ) 
        table->?
      ); let
    ); procedure
    

    Call the procedure on your list and get back a version with duplicates removed, for example:

    
    CCFremoveDupesFromList(list(1 2 1 1 3 4 5))
      => (5 4 3 2 1)
    
    CCFremoveDupesFromList('(("gndcore" "P15_VSS3V3") ("vddcore3v3" "P16_VDDI3V3")
      ("vddcore1v" "vddcore1v0") ("gndcore" "P33") ("gndcore" "P15_VSS3V3")
      ("vddcore3v3" "P16_VDDI3V3"))
    )
    => (("vddcore3v3" "P16_VDDI3V3") 
        ("vddcore1v" "vddcore1v0") 
        ("gndcore" "P15_VSS3V3") 
        ("gndcore" "P33")
    )
    

    Hopefully this is what you were looking for? If not, try searching this forum with keywords like "remove duplicate list", it's how I found the above example.

    Best regards,

    Lawrence.
