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)) ]

function array_diff(array1, array2) {
   let returnArray = [];
   $.each(array1, function(index, value) {
     let findStatus = false;
     if (Array.isArray(array2)) {
       $.each(array2, function(index2, value2) {
         if (value == value2) findStatus = true;
       });
     } else {
       if (value == array2) {
         findStatus = true;
       }
     }

     if (findStatus == false) {
       returnArray.push(value);
     }
   });
   return returnArray;
}

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]

快速的解决方案。尽管似乎其他人已经发布了相同方法的不同变体。我不确定这是否适合大型数组，但它适用于不大于10或15的数组。

差b - a

for(var i = 0; i < b.length; i++){
  for(var j = 0; j < a.length; j ++){
    var loc = b.indexOf(a[j]);
    if(loc > -1){
      b.splice(loc, 1);
    }
  }
}

修正了一下最佳答案

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

这将考虑当前的元素类型。B /c当我们创建一个[a1[i]]时，它将一个值从原始值转换为字符串，因此我们失去了实际值。

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;

};
