Rename give_duplicates to get_duplicates or find_duplicates


#traverse through list once and record duplicates
for x in list:
x = int(x)

Do you need to typecast to int?

if int(list[abs(x)-1]) < 0:
result.add(x)
else:
list[abs(x)-1] = int(list[abs(x)-1]) - (2 * int(list[abs(x)-1]))

Multiply with -1 instead of subtracting. Easier to read and understand

list[abs(x)-1] = -1 * list[abs(x)-1]

inp = input("Enter list of integers")
#convert string input into an array
list = inp.split()
print(give_duplicates(list))

Write few tests here using python's assert statement

Example:
assert give_duplicates([1, 1, 2]) == [1, 2]
