Returns the difference between two arrays.
|
|
|
|
Create a `Set` from `b`, then use `Array.prototype.filter()` on `a` to only keep values not contained in `b`.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
const difference = (a, b) => {
|
|
const s = new Set(b);
|
|
return a.filter(x => !s.has(x));
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
difference([1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 4]); // [3]
|
|
``` |
