我同意@luis-sieira的解决方案

我创建了位自解释函数，便于初学者一步一步理解:

function difference(oneArr, twoArr){
  var newArr = [];
  newArr = oneArr.filter((item)=>{
      return !twoArr.includes(item)
  });
  console.log(newArr)
    let arr = twoArr.filter((item)=>{
        return !oneArr.includes(item)
     });
    newArr =  newArr.concat(arr);
  console.log(newArr)
}
difference([1, 2, 3, 5], [1, 2, 3, 4, 5])

随着ES6的到来，带有sets和splat操作符(当时只在Firefox中工作，请检查兼容性表)，你可以编写以下一行代码:

var a = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];
var b = ['a', 'b'];
var b1 = new Set(b);
var difference = [...new Set(a.filter(x => !b1.has(x)))];

结果是["c"， "d"]。

ES6中一个更简洁的方法是以下解决方案。

var a1 = ['a', 'b'];
var a2 = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];

区别

a2.filter(d => !a1.includes(d)) // gives ["c", "d"]

十字路口

a2.filter(d => a1.includes(d)) // gives ["a", "b"]

析取联合(对称差分)

[ ...a2.filter(d => !a1.includes(d)),
  ...a1.filter(d => !a2.includes(d)) ]

只是修整字符串以确保....空格不会影响差异

function arr_diff(a1, a2) {
    var a=[], diff=[];
    for(var i=0;i<a1.length;i++)
        a[a1[i]]=true;
    for(var i=0;i<a2.length;i++)
        if(a[a2[i].trim()]) delete a[a2[i].trim()];
    else a[a2[i].trim()]=true;
    for(var k in a)
        diff.push(k);
    return diff;
}
