table.column( i ).data().unique().sort().each( function ( d, j ) {                 select.append(  '....'  )             } );     Here with the help of unique predefined function, we can able to get the distinct data from the data table.   $( 'select option' ).each (function () {   $( this ).siblings( "[value="  + this .vlaue +  "}" ).remove();   });   This function will helps to remove the duplicate content from the data table .
