NAME
       std::set_symmetric_difference - std::set_symmetric_difference

Synopsis
	  Defined in header <algorithm>
	  template< class InputIt1, class InputIt2, class OutputIt
	  >

	  OutputIt set_symmetric_difference			   (1) (const-
       expr since C++20)
	      (	InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1,
		InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2,

		OutputIt d_first );
	  template< class ExecutionPolicy,

		    class ForwardIt1, class ForwardIt2,	class
	  ForwardIt3 >
	  ForwardIt3  set_symmetric_difference			    (2)	(since
       C++17)
	      (	ExecutionPolicy&& policy,
		ForwardIt1 first1, ForwardIt1 last1,
		ForwardIt2 first2, ForwardIt2 last2,

		ForwardIt3 d_first );
	  template< class InputIt1, class InputIt2,

		    class OutputIt, class Compare >
	  OutputIt set_symmetric_difference			   (3) (const-
       expr since C++20)
	      (	InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1,
		InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2,

		OutputIt d_first, Compare comp );
	  template< class ExecutionPolicy,

		    class ForwardIt1, class ForwardIt2,
		    class ForwardIt3, class Compare >
	  ForwardIt3 set_symmetric_difference			   (4)	(since
       C++17)
	      (	ExecutionPolicy&& policy,
		ForwardIt1 first1, ForwardIt1 last1,

	  Computes  symmetric  difference  of  two sorted ranges: the elements
       that are	found in
	  either of the	ranges,	but not	in both	of  them  are  copied  to  the
       range beginning at
	  d_first. The output range is also sorted.

	  If  [first1,	last1) contains	m elements that	are equivalent to each
       other and
	  [first2, last2) contains n elements that  are	 equivalent  to	 them,
       then std::abs(m -
	  n)  of those elements	will be	copied to the output range, preserving
       order:

	    * if m > n,	the final m  -	n  of  these  elements	from  [first1,
       last1).
	    *  if  m  <	 n,  the  final	 n - m of these	elements from [first2,
       last2).
	  1) If	[first1, last1)	or [first2, last2) is not sorted with  respect
       to
	  operator<
	  (until C++20)
	  std::less{}
	  (since C++20), the behavior is undefined.
	  3)  If [first1, last1) or [first2, last2) is not sorted with respect
       to comp,	the
	  behavior is undefined.
	  2,4) Same as (1,3), but executed according to	policy.
	  These	overloads participate in overload resolution only if

	  std::is_execution_policy_v<std::decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>>  is	 true.
       (until
										    C++20)
	  std::is_execution_policy_v<std::remove_cvref_t<ExecutionPolicy>>  is
       true. (since
										    C++20)

	  If the output	 range	overlaps  with	[first1,  last1)  or  [first2,
       last2), the behavior
	  is undefined.

Parameters
	  first1, last1	- the first sorted range of elements
	  first2, last2	- the second sorted range of elements
	  d_first	- the beginning	of the output range
	  policy	 -  the	 execution policy to use. See execution	policy
       for details.
			  comparison function object (i.e. an object that sat-
       isfies the
			  requirements of Compare) which returns true  if  the
       first argument is
			  less than (i.e. is ordered before) the second.

			  The  signature  of the comparison function should be
       equivalent to the
			  following:

			  bool cmp(const Type1&	a, const Type2&	b);
	  comp		-
			  While	the signature does not need  to	 have  const&,
       the function must
			  not modify the objects passed	to it and must be able
       to accept all
			  values  of type (possibly const) Type1 and Type2 re-
       gardless	of value
			  category (thus, Type1& is not	allowed
			  , nor	is Type1 unless	for Type1 a move is equivalent
       to a copy
			  (since C++11)).
			  The types Type1 and Type2 must be such that  objects
       of types
			  InputIt1  and	 InputIt2 can be dereferenced and then
       implicitly
			  converted to both Type1 and Type2.

Type requirements
	  -
	  InputIt1, InputIt2 must meet the requirements	 of  LegacyInputItera-
       tor.
	  -
	  OutputIt must	meet the requirements of LegacyOutputIterator.
	  -
	  ForwardIt1, ForwardIt2, ForwardIt3 must meet the requirements	of
	  LegacyForwardIterator.
	  -
	  Compare must meet the	requirements of	Compare.

Return value
	  Iterator past	the end	of the constructed range.

Complexity
	  Given	\(\scriptsize N_1\)N
	  1 as std::distance(first1, last1) and	\(\scriptsize N_2\)N
	  2 as std::distance(first2, last2):

	  1,2) At most \(\scriptsize 2 \cdot (N_1+N_2)-1\)2(N
	  1+N
	  2)-1 comparisons using
	  operator<
	  (until C++20)
	  std::less{}
	  (since C++20).
	  3,4) At most \(\scriptsize 2 \cdot (N_1+N_2)-1\)2(N
	  1+N
	  2)-1 applications of the comparison function comp.

Exceptions
	  The overloads	with a template	parameter named	ExecutionPolicy	report
       errors as
	  follows:

	    *  If  execution  of  a  function invoked as part of the algorithm
       throws an exception
	      and ExecutionPolicy is one of the	standard policies, std::termi-
       nate is called.
	      For any other ExecutionPolicy, the behavior  is  implementation-
       defined.
	    *  If  the	algorithm  fails to allocate memory, std::bad_alloc is
       thrown.

Possible implementation
				      set_symmetric_difference (1)
	  template<class InputIt1, class InputIt2, class OutputIt>
	  OutputIt set_symmetric_difference(InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1,
					    InputIt2 first2,  InputIt2	last2,
       OutputIt	d_first)
	  {
	      while (first1 != last1)
	      {
		  if (first2 ==	last2)
		      return std::copy(first1, last1, d_first);

		  if (*first1 <	*first2)
		      *d_first++ = *first1++;
		  else
		  {
		      if (*first2 < *first1)
			  *d_first++ = *first2;
		      else
			  ++first1;
		      ++first2;
		  }
	      }
	      return std::copy(first2, last2, d_first);
	  }
				      set_symmetric_difference (3)
	  template<class  InputIt1, class InputIt2, class OutputIt, class Com-
       pare>
	  OutputIt set_symmetric_difference(InputIt1 first1, InputIt1 last1,
					    InputIt2 first2, InputIt2 last2,
					    OutputIt d_first, Compare comp)
	  {
	      while (first1 != last1)
	      {
		  if (first2 ==	last2)
		      return std::copy(first1, last1, d_first);

		  if (comp(*first1, *first2))
		      *d_first++ = *first1++;
		  else
		  {
		      if (comp(*first2,	*first1))
			  *d_first++ = *first2;
		      else
			  ++first1;
		      ++first2;
		  }
	      }
	      return std::copy(first2, last2, d_first);
	  }

Example
       // Run this code

	#include <algorithm>
	#include <iostream>
	#include <iterator>
	#include <vector>

	int main()
	{
	    std::vector<int> v1{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8};
	    std::vector<int> v2{5, 7, 9, 10};
	    std::sort(v1.begin(), v1.end());
	    std::sort(v2.begin(), v2.end());

	    std::vector<int> v_symDifference;

	    std::set_symmetric_difference(v1.begin(),  v1.end(),   v2.begin(),
       v2.end(),
					  std::back_inserter(v_symDiffer-
       ence));

	    for	(int n : v_symDifference)
		std::cout << n << ' ';
	    std::cout << '\n';
	}

Output:
	1 2 3 4	6 8 9 10
