LINQ and set difference
- by Pierre
I have two collections a and b. I would like to compute the set of items in either a or b, but not in both (a logical exclusive or). With LINQ, I can come up with this:
IEnumerable<T> Delta<T>(IEnumerable<T> a, IEnumerable<T> b)
{
return a.Except (b).Union (b.Except (a));
}
I wonder if there are other more efficient or more compact ways of producing the difference between the two collections.
