Hello,

I have a similar question with the "Unique Function" title, and need help. That's about "Extracting the Unique Rows and Marking to the Row Alone". The Input is :

and the Output is :

Unique_Mark( ).PNG

Thanks in advance.

That's some function. Would have thought it could be done a lot simpler. I have been racking my brain for a few hours now, but cannot seem to write a function.

Umm, yes. That was just a field-expedient TOTH fix. Here's a slightly more general lunch-time version using Tom Gutman's stable Csort plus a very basic brute force function that will just about do for small matrices but should be easier to follow. The new functions should handle any numeric or alphabetic matrix.

Something like the attached?

Needs considerable work and rethinking if you intend to use matrices with more than about 10 columns or larger numbers in the matrices.
