∆ (symmetric difference)

Gives the symmetric difference of two sets.

Syntax

• A ∆ B

  • A and B are sets

Description

If A and B are sets, then A ∆ B is the symmetric difference of A and B.

The ∆ operator is implemented by the SymmetricDifference function.

Examples

A ≔ { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 }

{4, 5, 1, 2, 3}

B ≔ { 0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 }

{4, 6, 10, 2, 8, 0}

A ∆ B

{6, 10, 3, 5, 1, 8, 0}
