PHP | Ds\Set xor() Function

The Ds\Set::xor() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to create a new set which contains the value either in the first set or second set but not both.

Syntax:

Ds\Set public Ds\Set::xor ( Ds\Set $set )

Parameters: This function accepts a single parameter $set which is used to hold the set of values.

Return Value: It is used to return a set which contains the xor of the current set with another set.

Below programs illustrate the Ds\Set::xor() function in PHP:

Program 1:




<?php 
  
// Declare a new set
$a = new \Ds\Set([1, 3, 5]); 
  
// Declare a new set
$b = new \Ds\Set([2, 3, 6]); 
  
// Print the xor of both set
echo("xor of both set is: \n"); 
  
print_r($a->xor($b));
  
?>


Output:

xor of both set is: 
Ds\Set Object
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 5
    [2] => 2
    [3] => 6
)

Program 2:




<?php 
  
// Declare a new set
$a = new \Ds\Set([2, 3, 6, 7, 8]); 
  
// Declare a new set
$b = new \Ds\Set([2, 3, 5, 8, 9, 10]); 
  
// Print the xor of both set
echo("xor of both set is: \n"); 
  
var_dump($a->xor($b));
  
?>


Output:

xor of both set is: 
object(Ds\Set)#3 (5) {
  [0]=>
  int(6)
  [1]=>
  int(7)
  [2]=>
  int(5)
  [3]=>
  int(9)
  [4]=>
  int(10)
}
