cpp C++0x/C++11 (gcc >=4.6)
vector<string> lst = { "andrew", "bob", "chris", "bob" };
vector<string> lst_no_dups;
vector<string> tmp;
vector<string> dups;

sort(lst.begin(), lst.end());

set_difference(lst.begin(), lst.end(),

back_inserter(tmp));
unique_copy(tmp.begin(), tmp.end(), back_inserter(dups));

cout << dups << endl;
