Set.prototype.symmetricDifference()
Set.prototype.symmetricDifference() is a JavaScript method in the Map & Set category. Returns elements in either set but not both. The syntax is set.symmetricDifference(other). A typical example: new Set([1,2]).symmetricDifference(new Set([2,3])) // Set {1,3}. A close sibling is Map.prototype.set(), which sets a key-value pair in the Map. A close sibling is Map.prototype.get(), which returns the value associated with a key. A close sibling is Map.prototype.has(), which checks if a key exists. A close sibling is Map.prototype.delete(), which removes a key-value pair. More about this category: Map and Set collection methods.
