Lists are similar to dynamically sized arrays (e.g., vector in C++ and ArrayList in Java) that are declared in other languages. Lists don’t always have to be homogeneous, which makes them a useful tool in Python. Integers, Strings, and Objects are all DataTypes that can be combined into a single list. Lists are mutable, meaning they can be modified after they’ve been formed.<\/p>\n

Duplicates are integers, strings, or items in a list that are repeated more than once.<\/p>\n

Given a list, the task is to check whether it has any duplicate element in it.<\/p>\n

Examples:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Input:<\/strong><\/p>\n

givenlist=[\"hello\", \"this\", \"is\", \"BTechGeeks\" , \"hello\"]<\/pre>\n

Output:<\/strong><\/p>\n

True<\/pre>\n

Explanation:<\/strong><\/p>\n

hello is repeated twice so the answer is Yes<\/pre>\n

Check whether list contains any repeated values<\/h2>\n

There are several ways to check duplicate elements some of them are:<\/p>\n
