What the agent was asked to do

You are solving a spreadsheet benchmark task in a real workbook. Objective: Produce the correct final workbook state for the expected answer region. What matters: - Only the values in the expected answer region will be graded. - The workbook is the answer. Instructions: 1. Read the workbook and inspect the relevant data region first. 2. Infer the required result for the provided workbook instance. 3. Write the final value(s) directly into the expected answer region. 4. Do not rely on prose, formulas in your chat response, pseudocode, or VBA as the answer unless the benchmark explicitly requires those to be written into cells. 5. If the natural-language task asks for a general method, formula, or macro, convert that into the concrete result needed for this workbook instance. 6. Keep your final text response short and only summarize the workbook cells you changed. Relevant data region(s): A1:E12 Expected answer region(s): 'Sheet1'!A14:E17 Expected answer sheet(s): Sheet1 Task: How can I remove or replace text duplicates within the same row in Excel, as most of the available methods only apply to columns? I have provided the sheet showing the issue I am facing with duplicates in consecutive columns where the expected result is shown in 'The Result I'm after' section. Place the output in A14:E17.
