## README

# array-unique [![NPM version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/array-unique.svg?style=flat)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/array-unique) [![NPM downloads](https://img.shields.io/npm/dm/array-unique.svg?style=flat)](https://npmjs.org/package/array-unique) [![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/jonschlinkert/array-unique.svg?style=flat)](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/array-unique)

Remove duplicate values from an array. Fastest ES5 implementation.

## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm install --save array-unique
```

## Usage

```js
var unique = require('array-unique');

var arr = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'c'];
console.log(unique(arr)) //=> ['a', 'b', 'c']
console.log(arr)         //=> ['a', 'b', 'c']

/* The above modifies the input array. To prevent that at a slight performance cost: */
var unique = require("array-unique").immutable;

var arr = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'c'];
console.log(unique(arr)) //=> ['a', 'b', 'c']
console.log(arr)         //=> ['a', 'b', 'c', 'c']
```
