Writing programs that solve the Programming Projects helps to solidify your understanding of the material and demonstrates how the chapter’s concepts are applied. (As noted in the Introduction, qualified instructors may obtain completed solutions to the Programming Projects on the publisher’s Web site.)

To the insertSort.java program (Listing 3.3), add a method called noDups() that removes duplicates from a previously sorted array without disrupting the order. (You can use the insertionSort() method to sort the data, or you can simply use main() to insert the data in sorted order.) One can imagine schemes in which all the items from the place where a duplicate was discovered to the end of the array would be shifted down one space every time a duplicate was discovered, but this would lead to slow O(N2) time, at least when there were a lot of duplicates. In your algorithm, make sure no item is moved more than once, no matter how many duplicates there are. This will give you an algorithm with O(N) time.
