Default "unique" forumla in excel

Excel currently does not have a formula to find unique values in a range. I
have needed to do this a number of times to provide useful analysis of data
sets. There is a way to find unique values by nesting several other
functions, however it is cumbersome to use and even more difficult to edit
correctly. Since the capability exists in a round about way, it should be
easy to craft into a stand alone function.
