Solution Exercise 61: Python algorithm to remove the duplicate characters from given string

Exercise 61

Write a Python program as function which takes as parameter a string s and return an other string obtained by removing the duplicate characters of s. Example if s = "Programming", the function must retun "Progamin"

Solution

def removeDuplicate(s):
    # initializing the string without duplicate characters
    string_no_duplicate = ""
    
    for x in s:
        if x not in string_no_duplicate:
            string_no_duplicate = string_no_duplicate + x
    return  string_no_duplicate

#Testing algorithm:
s = "Programming"
print("String without duplicate characters : '" , removeDuplicate(s) +"'")
# The output is : String without duplicate characters : ' Progamin'
