Set Difference VI
Computes the difference of two sets. The difference is the elements from the first set that are not included in the second set.

Inputs/Outputs
![]() set 1 specifies the first set. This input accepts a set of any data type. The default data type is a set of strings. ![]() set 2 specifies the second set. This input must be the same data type as set 1. The default data type is a set of strings. ![]() difference returns a set of elements from set 1 that are not included in set 2. |
The following figure illustrates how this VI computes the difference of two sets. The two circles represent the two sets. The green section is the difference.
