Three values in column A : A,B and C

In column B different values

q

t

x
C

p

<tbody>

I want to extract unique values of Column A to Column E
The result should be :
E1 : A E2: B E3: C

In F1 ,G1 and H1 the values should be : s f d
In F2 , G2 ,H2, I2 and J2 the values should be : r q u t x
In F3,G3,H3 and I3 the values should be: n m k p

I want the solution to be in formulas

Thanks advanced

Whats the difference between CONCAT and CONCATENATE?
The newer CONCAT function can reference a range of cells. =CONCATENATE(A1,A2,A3,A4,A5) becomes =CONCAT(A1:A5)

solution for Excel 2010 onwards:

<b>Worksheet Formulas</b><table cellpadding="2.5px" width="100%" rules="all" style="border: 1px solid;text-align:center;background-color: #FFFFFF;border-collapse: collapse; border-color: #BBB"><thead><tr style=" background-color: #DAE7F5;color: #161120"><th width="10px">Cell</th><th style="text-align:left;padding-left:5px;">Formula</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><th width="10px" style=" background-color: #DAE7F5;color: #161120">E1</th><td style="text-align:left">=IFERROR(<font color="Blue">INDEX(<font color="Red">$A$1:$A$15,AGGREGATE(<font color="Green">15,6,ROW(<font color="Purple">$A$1:$A$15</font>)/(<font color="Purple">MATCH(<font color="Teal">$A$1:$A$15,$A$1:$A$15,0</font>)=ROW(<font color="Teal">$A$1:$A$15</font>)</font>),ROWS(<font color="Purple">E$1:E1</font>)</font>)</font>),""</font>)</td></tr></tbody></table></td></tr></table><br />

and drag down

and drag down and across
