Python

# Remove duplicates preserving order

for line in lines:
    key = line.lower()
    if key not in seen:

Java

removeDuplicateLines.content.programming.java

// Using LinkedHashSet to preserve order
LinkedHashSet<String> uniqueLines = new LinkedHashSet<>(lines);
List<String> result = new ArrayList<>(uniqueLines);

// Using Stream API
List<String> unique = lines.stream()
    .distinct()
    .collect(Collectors.toList());

C#

removeDuplicateLines.content.programming.csharp

// Using LINQ Distinct
var uniqueLines = lines.Distinct().ToList();

// Preserving order with HashSet
var seen = new HashSet<string>();
var unique = lines.Where(line => seen.Add(line)).ToList();
