Example 1: get only unique values from array javascript

arr = [2, 2, 2, 1, 3, 3, 3,3, 4, 5];
arr = arr.sort().filter((item,i)=>!(arr[i] == arr[i+1] || arr[i-1]==arr[i]));
// this will remove all item which are repeating more then one

}

console.log(getNotUnique([1, 2, 2, 4, 4])); //[2, 2, 4, 4]
console.log(getNotUnique([1, 2, 3] )); //[]
