Getting unique values from 2 arrays

Question

I have 2 arrays that I\'m trying to get the unique values only from them. So I\'m not just trying to remove duplicates, I\'m actually trying to remove both duplicates.

Here is the code to do it. It may be able to be optimized, but you get the idea:

$array1 = array(10, 15, 20, 25);
$array2 = array(10, 15, 100, 150);

$new_array = array();
foreach($array1 as $value) {
    if(!in_array($value, $array2)) {
        array_push($new_array, $value);
    }
}
foreach($array2 as $value) {
    if(!in_array($value, $array1)) {
        array_push($new_array, $value);
    }
}

print_r($new_array);

To use array_diff, you would have to do:

$array1 = array(10, 15, 20, 25);
$array2 = array(10, 15, 100, 150);

$out1 = array_diff($array1, $array2);
$out2 = array_diff($array2, $array1);
$output = array_merge($out1, $out2);

print_r($output);
