Javascript Algorithm:Symmetric Difference between two sets

 Symmetric Difference:

The symmetric difference between sets A and B is the set that contains the

elements that are present in both sets except the common elements.The symmetric

difference between two sets A and B is represented by A Δ B or A ? B.

e.g.

Set A = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}

Set B = {3, 5}

So, the symmetric difference between the given sets A and B is {1, 2, 4}

Or, we can say that A Δ B = {1, 2, 4}.

How to find symmetric difference between sets in javascript?

Code:

function symmetricDifference(a, b) {

let c = [...a, ...b];

//keep unique elements only

let set = new Set(c);

c = Array.from(set);

let d = [];

a.forEach((m) => {

if (b.includes(m)) {

d.push(m);

}

});

let e = c.filter((m) => {

return !d.includes(m);

});

return e;

}

let diff = symmetricDifference([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [3, 5]);

console.log(diff)

Output:

[ 1, 2, 4 ]
