### unique elements in complex numbers list

I have a list of complex numbers, but even after converting it to a set, there are a lot of repetitions.

Is there an instruction to have only unique elements with complex numbers?

### unique elements in complex numbers list

I have a list of complex numbers, but even after converting it to a set, there are a lot of repetitions.repetitions. here is a minimal example (in my code i have 10^6 polynomials, here only 2)

from sage.rings.polynomial.complex_roots import complex_roots
x = polygen(ZZ)

r1 = complex_roots( x^3+1)
r2 = complex_roots( x^6+2x^3+1)

s1 = set([r[0] for r in r1])
s2 = set([r[0] for r in r2])

s1 | s2


which results in

{-1,
0.500000000000000? - 0.866025403784439?*I,
0.500000000000000? - 0.866025403784439?*I,
0.500000000000000? + 0.866025403784439?*I,
0.500000000000000? + 0.866025403784439?*I}


as you can see, the roots must be only 3. Is there an instruction to have only unique elements with complex numbers?

as you can see, the roots must be only 3. Is there an instruction to have only unique elements with reduce a set of complex numbers?numbers differing less than a delta?
