lower)) ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D'] Sequences with a mix of hashable and unhashable items can be used. The function will be slower (i.e., `O(n^2)`) for unhashable items. Remember that ``list`` objects are unhashable - you can use the *key* parameter to transform the list to a tuple (which is hashable) to avoid a slowdown. >>> iterable = ([1, 2], [2, 3], [1, 2]) >>> list(unique_everseen(iterable)) # Slow [[1, 2], [2, 3]] >>> list(unique_everseen(iterable, key=tuple)) # Faster [[1, 2], [2, 3]] Similary, you may want to convert unhashable ``set`` objects with ``key=frozenset``. For ``dict`` objects, ``key=lambda x: frozenset(x.items())`` can be used. N)
