in reply to Remove duplicate data from text file

  1. Read the file into an array
  2. Create a hash whose keys are the values in the array
  3. Create an array from the keys of the hash
  4. Print the array out to a file
The details are left as an exercise for the reader.

Don't go borrowing trouble. For programmers, this means Worry only about what you need to implement.
