Answer 1

Using "includes" to test if the element already exists.

var arr = [1, 1, 4, 5, 5], darr = [], duplicates = [];

for(var i = 0; i < arr.length; i++){
  if(darr.includes(arr[i]) && !duplicates.includes(arr[i]))
    duplicates.push(arr[i])
  else
    darr.push(arr[i]);
}

console.log(duplicates);

Array with duplicates
[1, 1, 4, 5, 5]
Array with distinct elements
[1, 4, 5]
duplicate values are
[1, 5]
