JavaScript: Filter out the non-unique values in an array

JavaScript fundamental (ES6 Syntax): Exercise-22 with Solution

Write a JavaScript program to filter out non-unique values in an array.

• Use new Set() and the spread operator (...) to create an array of the unique values in arr.
• Use Array.prototype.filter() to create an array containing only the unique values.

Sample Solution:

JavaScript Code:

//#Source https://bit.ly/2neWfJ2 
const filter_Non_Unique = arr => arr.filter(i => arr.indexOf(i) === arr.lastIndexOf(i));

console.log(filter_Non_Unique([1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5]));  
console.log(filter_Non_Unique([1, 2, 3, 4]));  

Sample Output:

[1,3,5]
[1,2,3,4]
