类似于Ian Grainger的解决方案(但在打字稿中):

function findDiffs(arrayOne: string[], arrayTwo: string[]) {

    let onlyInArrayOne = []
    let onlyInArrayTwo = []
    let share = []
    let [arrayOneCopy, arrayTwoCopy] = [[...arrayOne], [...arrayTwo]]

    arrayOneCopy.sort(); arrayTwoCopy.sort()

    while (arrayOneCopy.length !== 0 && arrayTwoCopy.length !== 0) {
        if (arrayOneCopy[0] == arrayTwoCopy[0]) {
            share.push(arrayOneCopy[0])
            arrayOneCopy.splice(0, 1)
            arrayTwoCopy.splice(0, 1)
        }
        if (arrayOneCopy[0] < arrayTwoCopy[0]) {
            onlyInArrayOne.push(arrayOneCopy[0])
            arrayOneCopy.splice(0, 1)
        }
        if (arrayOneCopy[0] > arrayTwoCopy[0]) {
            onlyInArrayTwo.push(arrayTwoCopy[0])
            arrayTwoCopy.splice(0, 1)
        }
    }
    onlyInArrayTwo = onlyInArrayTwo.concat(arrayTwoCopy)
    onlyInArrayOne = onlyInArrayOne.concat(arrayOneCopy)

    return {
        onlyInArrayOne,
        onlyInArrayTwo,
        share,
        diff: onlyInArrayOne.concat(onlyInArrayTwo)
    }
}

// arrayOne: [ 'a', 'b', 'c', 'm', 'y' ] 
// arrayTwo: [ 'c', 'b', 'f', 'h' ]
//
// Results: 
// { 
//    onlyInArrayOne: [ 'a', 'm', 'y' ],
//    onlyInArrayTwo: [ 'f', 'h' ],
//    share: [ 'b', 'c' ],
//    diff: [ 'a', 'm', 'y', 'f', 'h' ] 
// }

这是我用来获得两个数组之间的差异的函数-它适用于数值，字符串，混合num/字符串数组。在数组/多维数组中不是对象文字

function diff(arr1, arr2) {

    var x, 
        t;

    function uniq(a, b) {
        t = b;

        if( (b === 0 && x[b+1]!==a) || 
           (t > 0 && a !== x[b+1] && a !== x[b-1]) ) {
            return  a;
        }
    }


    x = arr1.concat(arr2).sort();

    return x.filter(uniq);
}

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

diff(a1, a2);

var arrayDifference = function(arr1, arr2){
  if(arr1 && arr1.length){
    if(arr2 && arr2.length > 0){
      for (var i=0, itemIndex; i<arr2.length; i++){
        itemIndex = arr1.indexOf(arr2[i]);
        if(itemIndex !== -1){
          arr1.splice(itemIndex, 1);
        }
      }
    }
    return arr1;
  }
  return [];
};

arrayDifference([1,2,3,4,5], [1,5,6]);

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;

};

对于想要从一个数组中减去另一个数组的人的回应…

如果不超过1000个元素试试这个…

设置一个新变量来复制Array01，并将其命名为Array03。

现在，使用冒泡排序算法比较Array01和Array02的元素，并在找到匹配时进行比较 对Array03执行以下操作…

 if (Array01[x]==Array02[y]) {Array03.splice(x,1);}

注意:我们正在修改Array03而不是Array01，这样就不会搞砸冒泡排序的嵌套循环!

最后，用一个简单的赋值操作将Array03的内容复制到Array01，就完成了。

困难的方法(如果你想做一些比.indexOf更奇特的东西)

var difference = function (source, target) {
    return source.reduce(function (diff, current) { 
        if (target.indexOf(current) === -1) { 
            diff.push(current); 
        }

        return diff; 
    }, []);
}

简单的方法

var difference = function (source, target) {
    return source.filter(function (current) {
        return target.indexOf(current) === -1;
    });
}
