Compare two arrays of objects and remove items in the second one that have the same property value

Question

All I need to do is compare two arrays of objects and remove items in the second one that have the same property value. For example:

var a = [{\'name\':\'bob         


        

Answer 1

You just need to break the inner loop when a match is found:

if (a[i].name == b[j].name) {
    b.splice(j, 1);
    break;
}
