Namespace:  System.Collections.Generic
Assembly:  System.Core (in System.Core.dll)

Syntax

'Declaration
Public Sub SymmetricExceptWith ( _
    other As IEnumerable(Of T) _
)

public void SymmetricExceptWith(
    IEnumerable<T> other
)

Parameters

Implements

ISet<T>.SymmetricExceptWith(IEnumerable<T>)

Exceptions

other is nulla null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

If the other parameter is a HashSet<T> collection with the same equality comparer as the current HashSet<T> object, this method is an O(n) operation. Otherwise, this method is an O(n + m) operation, where n is the number of elements in other and m is Count.
