        Dim frequency As Dictionary(Of Integer, Integer) = New Dictionary(Of Integer, Integer)()

        For Each num As Integer In lst
            If frequency.ContainsKey(num) Then

        Return result
    End Function

        }
        Dim uniqueValues As List(Of Integer) = GetUniqueExcludeDuplicates(lst)
        Console.Write("Unique values (excluding duplicates): ")

        For Each num As Integer In uniqueValues
            Console.Write(num & " ")
        Next

        Console.WriteLine()
