print out the duplicate of an array only once

[frehiwot]

i want to print out an element of an array only once even if the element has many duplicates. her is the code i have tried;-

     for(int count=0;count<arr.length;count++){
    int counter = 0;
    char num = arr[count];
      for(int count2=0;count2<arr.length;count2++){
     if(num==arr[count2]){
       counter++; }
    } System.out.println(num + "\t" + counter);}

Please use code tags when posting code.

That code in no way accounts for duplicates. One method is to remove all occurrences of an element after it has been printed. Another method is to insert what has been printed into another array and check against that array before printing. A third method is to sort the array and then print at each change of value.

Which method you use will depend on your requirements. For example, I would use the second method if I needed to keep the original data intact and in its original order.

The fastest and easiest way is to insert all the data into a set. Sets allows no duplicates.
