你可以使用set来删除重复项:

mylist = list(set(mylist))

但请注意，结果将是无序的。如果这是个问题的话:

mylist.sort()

到目前为止，我看到的所有保持顺序的方法要么使用朴素比较(时间复杂度最多为O(n^2))，要么使用限制于可哈希输入的重载OrderedDicts/set+list组合。下面是一个与哈希无关的O(nlogn)解决方案:

更新增加了关键参数、文档和Python 3兼容性。

# from functools import reduce <-- add this import on Python 3

def uniq(iterable, key=lambda x: x):
    """
    Remove duplicates from an iterable. Preserves order. 
    :type iterable: Iterable[Ord => A]
    :param iterable: an iterable of objects of any orderable type
    :type key: Callable[A] -> (Ord => B)
    :param key: optional argument; by default an item (A) is discarded 
    if another item (B), such that A == B, has already been encountered and taken. 
    If you provide a key, this condition changes to key(A) == key(B); the callable 
    must return orderable objects.
    """
    # Enumerate the list to restore order lately; reduce the sorted list; restore order
    def append_unique(acc, item):
        return acc if key(acc[-1][1]) == key(item[1]) else acc.append(item) or acc 
    srt_enum = sorted(enumerate(iterable), key=lambda item: key(item[1]))
    return [item[1] for item in sorted(reduce(append_unique, srt_enum, [srt_enum[0]]))] 

很晚才回答。 如果你不关心列表顺序，你可以使用*arg扩展集唯一性来删除dupes，即:

l = [*{*l}]

Python3演示

简单易行:

myList = [1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 5, 6, 7, 8]
cleanlist = []
[cleanlist.append(x) for x in myList if x not in cleanlist]

输出:

>>> cleanlist 
[1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8]

def remove_duplicates(A):
   [A.pop(count) for count,elem in enumerate(A) if A.count(elem)!=1]
   return A

用于删除重复项的列表推导

我没有看到非哈希值的答案，一行，nlog n，标准库，所以这是我的答案:

list(map(operator.itemgetter(0), itertools.groupby(sorted(items))))

或作为一个生成函数:

def unique(items: Iterable[T]) -> Iterable[T]:
    """For unhashable items (can't use set to unique) with a partial order"""
    yield from map(operator.itemgetter(0), itertools.groupby(sorted(items)))
