  assert remove_duplicates([1, 3, 3, 5, 5, 7])==[1, 3, 5, 7]
  assert remove_duplicates([2, 4, 4, 2, 6, 8, 6, 8])==[2, 4, 6, 8]
  assert remove_duplicates([])==[]
  assert remove_duplicates([1, 1, 1, 1])==[1]
  assert remove_duplicates([5])==[5]
output: def remove_duplicates(lst):
      seen = set()
      result = []
      for item in lst:
          if item not in seen:
              seen.add(item)
              result.append(item)
      return result
