I am looking for an efficient way to remove all elements from a javascript array if they are present in another array.
// If I have this array:
var myArray = ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g'];
// and this one:
var toRemove = ['b', 'c', 'g'];
I want to operate on myArray to leave it in this state: ['a', 'd', 'e', 'f']
With jQuery, I’m using grep()
and inArray()
, which works well:
myArray = $.grep(myArray, function(value) {
return $.inArray(value, toRemove) < 0;
});
Is there a pure javascript way to do this without looping and splicing?
