Write a java program to remove duplicate elements in the string array. Write a program to read a string array, remove duplicate elements and sort the array.
Note:
- The check for duplicate elements must be case-sensitive. (AA and aa are NOT duplicates)
- While sorting, words starting with upper case letters takes precedence.
The return type is the sorted array.
Input and Output Format:
Input consists of an integer n which is the number of elements followed by n string values.
Output consists of the elements of string array.
Refer sample output for formatting specifications.
Sample Input 1:
6
AAA
BBB
AAA
AAA
CCC
CCC
Sample Output 1:
AAA
BBB
CCC
Sample Input 2:
7
AAA
BBB
aaa

A
b
Sample Output 2:
A
AAA
Abc
BBB
aaa
b
