Find Duplicates in Array

EasyPython

Problem

Write a function in your preferred language to find duplicate elements in an array.

Return each duplicated value once, in the order its second occurrence is encountered. Use def find_duplicates(arr):; the input is a list of integers and the output is a list of integers. Return [] when no value appears more than once. Assume 0 <= len(arr) <= 10^4.

Constraints

  • 0 <= len(arr) <= 10^4
  • Each element is an integer
  • Each duplicated value appears once in the output
  • Output order follows the order in which values become duplicates

Function Signature

def find_duplicates(arr):
