Tool usage guide
The Sorted Unique tool efficiently removes consecutive duplicate values from a sorted JSON array using the lodash _.sortedUniq function. It ensures your data is clean and unique, ideal for preprocessing sorted datasets.
Background
You have a sorted list of event timestamps from a log file, but some events are logged multiple times consecutively.
Problem
The array has duplicate timestamps that need to be removed for accurate analysis.
How to use
Enter the sorted JSON array of timestamps into the tool's input field.
Outcome
The tool returns a new array with consecutive duplicate timestamps removed, e.g., [1625097600, 1625097601, 1625097603].
Background
You have a sorted list of product codes from an inventory scan, but some codes appear multiple times in a row due to scanning errors.
Problem
Need to clean the list to get unique product codes for stock reconciliation.
How to use
Paste the sorted array of product codes into the tool.
Outcome
A unique list of product codes is generated, such as ['A001', 'A002', 'B001'].
It removes consecutive duplicate values from a sorted JSON array using lodash _.sortedUniq.
Yes, the tool requires the input array to be sorted for _.sortedUniq to work correctly.
You must provide a valid JSON array, such as [1, 1, 2, 3].
Yes, it works with any data type that can be compared, as long as the array is sorted.
No, the tool returns a new array with duplicates removed, leaving the input unchanged.
