Hello there! 👋 😊

In this article, I would like to show you two ways to remove duplicated lines from some text in JavaScript.

Before we start, I would highly recommend you to check out runnable examples for the solution on our website:
JavaScript — remove duplicated lines

We’re gonna use two methods:

  • filter()
  • reduce()

filter() based example

This approach uses a functional programming pattern. I’ve used filter() method that creates new array of elements tested with provided function.

To the filter() method I passed a set of commands that remove duplicated lines.

Practical example:

reduce() based example

This approach was created to show that it is possible to get the same effect as in the example above with reduce() method.

Practical example:
