RangeMOCIndex.symmetric_difference(other)

Compute the symmetric set difference of two indexes

The symmetric set difference contains all elements that are in self or other but not both:

\[A \Delta B = (A - B) \cup (B - A)\]

Parameters:

other (RangeMOCIndex) – The index to subtract. May have a different depth, in which case the result will use the maximum depth between both indexes.

Returns:

result (RangeMOCIndex) – The symmetric set difference of the two indexes.
