Answer from AI

To find unique elements while preserving the last occurrence, you can iterate through the list from end to start, keeping track of seen elements in a set. Add elements to the result only if they haven't been seen before. After the iteration, reverse the result to restore the original order with the last occurrences.

Example in Dart:

List<T> uniqueLast<T>(List<T> list) {
  final seen = <T>{};
  final result = <T>[];
  for (var i = list.length - 1; i >= 0; i--) {
    if (!seen.contains(list[i])) {
      seen.add(list[i]);
      result.add(list[i]);
    }
  }
  return result.reversed.toList();
}

The algorithm complexity is O(n), where n is the length of the list, since we traverse the list once and set operations are performed in amortized O(1) time.
