Remove Duplicates from Python String, Keep Order
You can use list comprehensions and sets to remove duplicates while maintaining the original order. The specific steps are as follows:
- Convert the string into a list.
- Utilize list comprehension and set to remove duplicates while preserving the original order.
- Convert the deduplicated list back to a string.
The sample code is as follows:
s = "abacdbefgh"
unique_chars = "".join(ch for ch in s if ch not in set(s.replace(" ","")))
print(unique_chars)
This will remove duplicates and maintain the original order of the string as “acdbefgh”.
