javascript-lodashHow can I use Lodash's xor function to manipulate JavaScript objects?

Lodash's xor function can be used to manipulate JavaScript objects by performing a symmetric difference between two objects. This means that it will return properties that exist in one object but not in the other.

For example:

const a = {
  name: 'John',
  age: 30
};

const b = {
  name: 'John',
  address: 'London'
};

const result = _.xor(a, b);

console.log(result);

Output example

[ { age: 30 }, { address: 'London' } ]

The xor function will return an array of objects, with the properties that exist in one object but not in the other. In this case, age exists in a but not in b, and address exists in b but not in a.

The xor function can also be used to detect differences between two objects with the same properties. For example:

const a = {
  name: 'John',
  age: 30
};

const b = {
  name: 'John',
  age: 40
};

const result = _.xor(a, b);

console.log(result);

Output example

[ { age: 30 }, { age: 40 } ]

In this case, the xor function will return an array of objects, with the properties that differ between the two objects. In this case, age is different in both objects.

The xor function can be used in a variety of ways to manipulate JavaScript objects.
