This should really be in the scripting subforum.

But basic steps:

  • Ready new list
  • Add each element from existing list, checking a match doesn’t exist in the list
  • If a match exist, combine them in some manner with the match, otherwise add the element

You’re going to have to introduce the manner in which these elements are combined yourself.

See this example:

Enumerable.Join Method (System.Linq) | Microsoft Learn)-system-collections-generic-ienumerable((-1))-system-func((-0-2))-system-func((-1-2))-system-func((-0-1-3)))

Is this your homework?
