对称和线性复杂度。需要ES6。

function arrDiff(arr1, arr2) {
    var arrays = [arr1, arr2].sort((a, b) => a.length - b.length);
    var smallSet = new Set(arrays[0]);

    return arrays[1].filter(x => !smallSet.has(x));
}

下划线中的差分方法(或它的替换，Lo-Dash)也可以做到这一点:

(R)eturns the values from array that are not present in the other arrays

_.difference([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [5, 2, 10]);
=> [1, 3, 4]

与任何下划线函数一样，你也可以以更面向对象的风格使用它:

_([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]).difference([5, 2, 10]);

所选的答案只对了一半。您必须比较数组的两种方式才能得到完整的答案。

const ids_exist = [
   '1234',
   '5678',
   'abcd',
]

const ids_new = [
  '1234',
  '5678',
  'efjk',
  '9999',
]

function __uniq_Filter (__array_1, __array_2) {
  const one_not_in_two = __array_1.filter(function (obj) {
    return __array_2.indexOf(obj) == -1
  })
  const two_not_in_one = __array_2.filter(function (obj) {
    return __array_1.indexOf(obj) == -1
  })
  return one_not_in_two.concat(two_not_in_one)
}

let uniq_filter = __uniq_Filter(ids_exist, ids_new)

console.log('uniq_filter', uniq_filter) // => [ 'abcd', 'efjk', '9999' ]

这个怎么样:

Array.prototype.contains = function(needle){
  for (var i=0; i<this.length; i++)
    if (this[i] == needle) return true;

  return false;
} 

Array.prototype.diff = function(compare) {
    return this.filter(function(elem) {return !compare.contains(elem);})
}

var a = new Array(1,4,7, 9);
var b = new Array(4, 8, 7);
alert(a.diff(b));

这样你就可以用array1。diff(array2)来得到它们的区别算法的时间复杂度很可怕- O(array1。长度(我相信)

如果不使用hasOwnProperty，那么我们有不正确的元素。例如:

[1,2,3].diff([1,2]); //Return ["3", "remove", "diff"] This is the wrong version

我的版本:

Array.prototype.diff = function(array2)
  {
    var a = [],
        diff = [],
        array1 = this || [];

    for (var i = 0; i < array1.length; i++) {
      a[array1[i]] = true;
    }
    for (var i = 0; i < array2.length; i++) {
      if (a[array2[i]]) {
        delete a[array2[i]];
      } else {
        a[array2[i]] = true;
      }
    }

    for (var k in a) {
      if (!a.hasOwnProperty(k)){
        continue;
      }
      diff.push(k);
    }

    return diff;
  }

转换为字符串对象类型:

[1, 1].toString() === [1, 1].toString(); // true
