setxor

Set exclusive-or of two vectors

Syntax

• c = setxor(A,B)
  c = setxor(A,B,'rows')
  [c,ia,ib] = setxor(...)
  

Description

c = setxor(A,B) returns the values that are not in the intersection of A and B. The resulting vector is sorted. A and B can be cell arrays of strings.

c = setxor(A,B,'rows') when A and B are matrices with the same number of columns returns the rows that are not in the intersection of A and B.

[c,ia,ib] = setxor(...) also returns index vectors ia and ib such that c is a sorted combination of the elements c = a(ia) and c = b(ib) or, for row combinations, c = a(ia,:) and c = b(ib,:).

Examples

• a = [-1 0 1 Inf -Inf NaN];
  b = [-2 pi 0 Inf];
  c = setxor(a,b)
  
  c =
        -Inf   -2.0000   -1.0000    1.0000    3.1416       NaN
