为什么不使用对象？看起来你在尝试建立一套模型。然而，这并不能维持秩序。

var set1 = {"Vijendra":true, "Singh":true}
var set2 = {"Singh":true,  "Shakya":true}

// Merge second object into first
function merge(set1, set2){
  for (var key in set2){
    if (set2.hasOwnProperty(key))
      set1[key] = set2[key]
  }
  return set1
}

merge(set1, set2)

// Create set from array
function setify(array){
  var result = {}
  for (var item in array){
    if (array.hasOwnProperty(item))
      result[array[item]] = true
  }
  return result
}

对于大型输入，更好的选择是对数组进行排序。然后合并它们。

function sortFunction(a, b) {
        return a - b;
}

arr1.sort(sortFunction);
arr2.sort(sortFunction);

function mergeDedup(arr1, arr2) {

    var i = 0, j = 0, result = [];
    while (i < arr1.length && j < arr2.length) {

        if (arr1[i] < arr2[j]) {
            writeIfNotSameAsBefore(result, arr1[i]);
            i++;
        }
        else if (arr1[i] > arr2[j]) {
            writeIfNotSameAsBefore(result, arr2[j]);
            j++;
        }
        else {
            writeIfNotSameAsBefore(result, arr1[i]);
            i++;
            j++;
        }

    }

    while (i < arr1.length) {
        writeIfNotSameAsBefore(result, arr1[i]);
        i++;
    }

    while (j < arr2.length) {
        writeIfNotSameAsBefore(result, arr2[j]);
        j++;
    }
    return result;
}

function writeIfNotSameAsBefore(arr, item) {
    if (arr[arr.length - 1] !== item) {
        arr[arr.length] = item;
    }
    return arr.length;
}

排序将采用O（nlogn+mlogm），其中n和m是数组的长度，O（x）用于合并，其中x=Max（n，m）；

这是我需要合并（或返回两个数组的并集）时使用的函数。

var union = function (a, b) {
  for (var i = 0; i < b.length; i++)
    if (a.indexOf(b[i]) === -1)
      a.push(b[i]);
  return a;
};

var a = [1, 2, 3, 'a', 'b', 'c'];
var b = [2, 3, 4, 'b', 'c', 'd'];

a = union(a, b);
//> [1, 2, 3, "a", "b", "c", 4, "d"]

var array1 = ["Vijendra", "Singh"];
var array2 = ["Singh", "Shakya"];

var array3 = union(array1, array2);
//> ["Vijendra", "Singh", "Shakya"]

如果像我一样，您需要支持较旧的浏览器，这适用于IE6+

function es3Merge(a, b) {
    var hash = {},
        i = (a = a.slice(0)).length,
        e;

    while (i--) {
        hash[a[i]] = 1;
    }

    for (i = 0; i < b.length; i++) {
        hash[e = b[i]] || a.push(e);
    }

    return a;
};

合并无限数量的数组或非数组并保持其唯一性：

function flatMerge() {
    return Array.prototype.reduce.call(arguments, function (result, current) {
        if (!(current instanceof Array)) {
            if (result.indexOf(current) === -1) {
                result.push(current);
            }
        } else {
            current.forEach(function (value) {
                console.log(value);
                if (result.indexOf(value) === -1) {
                    result.push(value);
                }
            });
        }
        return result;
    }, []);
}

flatMerge([1,2,3], 4, 4, [3, 2, 1, 5], [7, 6, 8, 9], 5, [4], 2, [3, 2, 5]);
// [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 6, 8, 9]

flatMerge([1,2,3], [3, 2, 1, 5], [7, 6, 8, 9]);
// [1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 6, 8, 9]

flatMerge(1, 3, 5, 7);
// [1, 3, 5, 7]

//Array.indexOf was introduced in javascript 1.6 (ECMA-262) 
//We need to implement it explicitly for other browsers, 
if (!Array.prototype.indexOf)
{
  Array.prototype.indexOf = function(elt, from)
  {
    var len = this.length >>> 0;

    for (; from < len; from++)
    {
      if (from in this &&
          this[from] === elt)
        return from;
    }
    return -1;
  };
}
//now, on to the problem

var array1 = ["Vijendra","Singh"];
var array2 = ["Singh", "Shakya"];

var merged = array1.concat(array2);
var t;
for(i = 0; i < merged.length; i++)
  if((t = merged.indexOf(i + 1, merged[i])) != -1)
  {
    merged.splice(t, 1);
    i--;//in case of multiple occurrences
  }

其他浏览器的indexOf方法的实现取自MDC
