Given two 0-indexed integer arrays nums1
and nums2
, return a list answer
of size 2
where:
answer[0]
is a list of all distinct integers innums1
which are not present innums2
.answer[1]
is a list of all distinct integers innums2
which are not present innums1
.
Note that the integers in the lists may be returned in any order.
Example
Input: nums1 = [1,2,3], nums2 = [2,4,6]
Output: [[1,3],[4,6]]
Explanation:
For nums1, nums1[1] = 2 is present at index 0 of nums2, whereas nums1[0] = 1 and nums1[2] = 3 are not present in nums2. Therefore, answer[0] = [1,3].
For nums2, nums2[0] = 2 is present at index 1 of nums1, whereas nums2[1] = 4 and nums2[2] = 6 are not present in nums2. Therefore, answer[1] = [4,6].
Solution
/**
* @param {number[]} nums1
* @param {number[]} nums2
* @return {number[][]}
*/
var findDifference = function (nums1, nums2) {
//Declare a new array to store the result along with set1 and set2
let res = [[], []];
let set1 = new Set(nums1);
let set2 = new Set(nums2);
//Loop through set1 and check if set2 has the same value
for (let num of set1) {
//If not, push the value to the result array
if (!set2.has(num)) {
//Push the value to the result array
res[0].push(num);
}
}
//Loop through set2 and check if set1 has the same value
for (let num of set2) {
//If not, push the value to the result array
if (!set1.has(num)) {
//Push the value to the result array
res[1].push(num);
}
}
return res;
};
