Python List: Exercise - 136 with Solution

Write a Python program to remove duplicate words from a given list of strings.

Sample Solution:

Python Code:

def unique_list(l):
    temp = []
    for x in l:
        if x not in temp:
            temp.append(x)
    return temp

text_str = ["Python", "Exercises", "Practice", "Solution", "Exercises"]
print("Original String:")
print(text_str)
print("\nAfter removing duplicate words from the said list of strings:")
print(unique_list(text_str))

Sample Output:

Original String:
['Python', 'Exercises', 'Practice', 'Solution', 'Exercises']

After removing duplicate words from the said list of strings:
['Python', 'Exercises', 'Practice', 'Solution']
