Javascript algorithm to find elements in array that are not in another array

I\'m looking for a good algorithm to get all the elements in one array that are not elements in another array. So given these arrays:

var x = [\"a\",\"b\",\         


        

Answer 1

Here's an alternative using underscore.js:

function inAButNotInB(A, B) {
  return _.filter(A, function (a) {
    return !_.contains(B, a);
  });
}
