Js effectively removes the array duplicate element sample code

 
function unique(data){ 
data = data || []; 
var a = {}; 
for (var i=0; i<data.length; i++) { 
var v = data[i]; 
if (typeof(a[v]) == 'undefined'){ 
a[v] = 1; 
} 
}; 
data.length=0; 
for (var i in a){ 
data[data.length] = i; 
} 
return data; 
} 

function test(){ 
var arr = [9,1,3,8,7,7,6,6,5,7,8,8,7,4,3,1]; 
var arr1 = unique(arr); 
alert(arr1.join(",")); 
} 
test();
