std::sort, then std::unique

I think you want STL unique (and some example code as requested).

I haven't made much usage of lists but I envision them to be something like arrays. In that case, one way to do this is to sort them alphabetically and then iterate through the list compare the current element to the next element. If they're the same delete. If not, proceed!

Check this:

As said by Raph, use stl unique. as simple as that.

The answer to your question is to used STL function name "Unique", but this function requires the collection to be sorted, so if your collection is not sorted then use STL Sort.
