If you are new to perl I advise spending time reading: http://learn.perl.org http://perldoc.perl.org The Tutorials section of this site, including the section Getting Started with Perl.	[reply]

See perlfaq4 for "duplicate". That shows the basic approach of removing duplicates from any kind of list. Adapting this algorithm to your specific needs is left as an exercise.	[reply]
