Returns the difference between two iterables.
Use list comprehension to only keep values not contained in `b`.
Create a `set` fromn `b`, then use list comprehension on `a` to only keep values not contained in the previously created set, `_b`.
```py
def difference(a, b):
_b = set(b)
return [item for item in a if item not in _b]
_b = set(b)
return [item for item in a if item not in _b]
```
```py
difference([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 4]) # [3]
```
