       for(var i=1;i<char.length;i++){              
           var isExist = rst.search(char.charAt(i));
            isExist >=0 ?0:(rst +=  char.charAt(i) ); 
       }
       console.log(JSON.stringify(rst)); //output string : avsf

    function removeDuplicates(str) {
       var result = "";
       var freq = {};
       for(i=0;i<str.length;i++){
        let char = str[i];
        if(freq[char]) {
          freq[char]++;     
        } else {
           freq[char] =1
           result +=char;
       }
    }
  return result;
