OrderedBagTSymmetricDifference Method
Computes the symmetric difference of this bag with another bag. The symmetric difference of two bags is all items that appear in either of the bags, but not both. If an item appears X times in one bag, and Y times in the other bag, the symmetric difference contains the item AbsoluteValue(X - Y times). A new bag is created with the symmetric difference of the bags and is returned. This bag and the other bag are unchanged.

public OrderedBag<T> SymmetricDifference(
	OrderedBag<T> otherBag
)

Parameters

otherBag
Type: X3Platform.CollectionsOrderedBagT
Bag to symmetric difference with.

Return Value

Type: OrderedBagT
The symmetric difference of the two bags.
Exceptions
ExceptionCondition
InvalidOperationExceptionThis bag and otherBag don't use the same method for comparing items.
ArgumentNullExceptionotherBag is null.
Remarks

The symmetric difference of two bags is computed in time O(M + N), where M is the size of the larger bag, and N is the size of the smaller bag.
