Remove duplicate list

I have 171 list and each list has 2 numbers. Some of the list are duplicates. Is there a function or loop that can do this.

Thanks, John

RemoveDuplicates.  Note, however, Scott Heide (see message below) found a defect in it when using a comparison function.  As long as you are satisfied with "Equal" as the comparison, it should work fine.  If it doesn't work in your particular case, please post a sample of the data, and I will look into it.

  RemoveDuplicates() will remove duplicates within One list. I am trying to remove duplicate lists.

Example: {{4.5,6},{2.5,6},{1.5,8},{4.5,6}}

Collect all list except because it is a duplicate list.

Intent >RemoveDuplicates({1,2,2,3})
--> {1, 2, 3}
Intent >RemoveDuplicates({{1,2,2,3}, {1,2,2}, {1,2,2,3}})
--> {{1, 2, 2, 3}, {1, 2, 2}}

Using your exact list:

Intent >RemoveDuplicates({{4.5,6},{2.5,6},{1.5,8},{4.5,6}})
--> {{4.5, 6}, {2.5, 6}, {1.5, 8}}

 

It is recursive.
