非常简单的解决方案与JavaScript的过滤器功能:

Var a1 = ['a'， 'b']; Var a2 = ['a'， 'b'， 'c'， 'd']; (arr1, arr2) { var newArr = []; var myArr = ar1 .concat(arr2); newArr = myArr.filter(函数(项){ return arr2.indexOf(item) < 0 || arr1.indexOf(item) < 0; })； 警报(newArr); ｝ diffArray (a1, a2);

var result = [];
var arr1 = [1,2,3,4];
var arr2 = [2,3];
arr1.forEach(function(el, idx) {
    function unEqual(element, index, array) {
        var a = el;
        return (element!=a);
    }
    if (arr2.every(unEqual)) {
        result.push(el);
    };
});
alert(result);

这是受到了思想者接受的答案的启发，但是思想者的答案似乎假设数组是集合。如果数组是["1"，"2"]和["1"，"1"，"2"，"2"]，它就不成立了

这些数组之间的差值是["1"，"2"]。下面的解决方案是O(n*n)，所以不理想，但如果您有大数组，它也比思想者的解决方案具有内存优势。

如果你首先处理的是集合，思想者的解决方案肯定更好。如果你有一个可以访问过滤器的Javascript新版本，你也应该使用它们。这只适用于那些不处理集的人，并且正在使用旧版本的JavaScript(无论出于什么原因)…

if (!Array.prototype.diff) { 
    Array.prototype.diff = function (array) {
        // if the other array is a falsy value, return a copy of this array
        if ((!array) || (!Array.prototype.isPrototypeOf(array))) { 
            return this.slice(0);
        }

        var diff = [];
        var original = this.slice(0);

        for(var i=0; i < array.length; ++i) {
            var index = original.indexOf(array[i]);
            if (index > -1) { 
                original.splice(index, 1);
            } else { 
                diff.push(array[i]);
            }
        }

        for (var i=0; i < original.length; ++i) {
            diff.push(original[i]);
        }
        return diff;
    }
}   

function diffArray(arr1, arr2) {
  var newArr = arr1.concat(arr2);
  return newArr.filter(function(i){
    return newArr.indexOf(i) == newArr.lastIndexOf(i);
  });
}

这对我很有用

function diff(arr1, arr2) {
  var filteredArr1 = arr1.filter(function(ele) {
    return arr2.indexOf(ele) == -1;
  });

  var filteredArr2 = arr2.filter(function(ele) {
    return arr1.indexOf(ele) == -1;
  });
  return filteredArr1.concat(filteredArr2);
}

diff([1, "calf", 3, "piglet"], [1, "calf", 3, 4]); // Log ["piglet",4]

我在这里读到的答案有很多问题，使得它们在实际编程应用中价值有限。

First and foremost, you're going to want to have a way to control what it means for two items in the array to be "equal". The === comparison is not going to cut it if you're trying to figure out whether to update an array of objects based on an ID or something like that, which frankly is probably one of the most likely scenarios in which you will want a diff function. It also limits you to arrays of things that can be compared with the === operator, i.e. strings, ints, etc, and that's pretty much unacceptable for grown-ups.

其次，diff操作有三种状态结果:

在第一个数组中但不在第二个数组中的元素 两个数组共用的元素 在第二个数组中但不在第一个数组中的元素

我认为这意味着你需要不少于2个循环，但我愿意接受肮脏的技巧，如果有人知道如何将其减少到一个。

这里是我拼凑的一些东西，我想强调的是，我绝对不在乎它在旧版本的Microshaft浏览器中不起作用。如果您在IE这样的较差的编码环境中工作，那么您就可以自行修改它，使其在您无法满意的限制范围内工作。

Array.defaultValueComparison = function(a, b) {
    return (a === b);
};

Array.prototype.diff = function(arr, fnCompare) {

    // validate params

    if (!(arr instanceof Array))
        arr = [arr];

    fnCompare = fnCompare || Array.defaultValueComparison;

    var original = this, exists, storage, 
        result = { common: [], removed: [], inserted: [] };

    original.forEach(function(existingItem) {

        // Finds common elements and elements that 
        // do not exist in the original array

        exists = arr.some(function(newItem) {
            return fnCompare(existingItem, newItem);
        });

        storage = (exists) ? result.common : result.removed;
        storage.push(existingItem);

    });

    arr.forEach(function(newItem) {

        exists = original.some(function(existingItem) {
            return fnCompare(existingItem, newItem);
        });

        if (!exists)
            result.inserted.push(newItem);

    });

    return result;

};
