Don, your solution was 100% correct, as always!
As a note, within $(( )) and (( )) evaluation you do not need further $ evaluations. So the following works as well
Code:
for (( i=0; i<n; i++ ))

Code:
for (( i=0; i<(n-1); i++ ))

Last but not least, in bash-4 you can use an associative array to automatically sort out duplicates:
Code:
#!/bin/bash
echo "This is a sample Prog to remove duplicate integer items from an array"
echo "How many numbers do you want to insert"
read n
declare -A hash
for (( i=0; i<n; i++ ))
do
        echo "Enter Number"
        read num
        # we address the array by $num, and do not need a value
        hash[$num]=""
done
echo "Insertion is done, Below are the elements of the array"
# dump the keys
printf "%s\n" "${!hash[@]}"
echo "now loop through the keys"
for i in "${!hash[@]}"
do
   echo "do something with $i"
done
