[ruby-core:69767] [Ruby trunk - Feature #11315] [PATCH] Add Array#^ for parity with other set-like operations.

[nobu@ruby-lang.org]

Issue #11315 has been updated by Nobuyoshi Nakada.


`st_update` does lookup/replace/delete/insert in the callback at once.
And your patches are broken, necessary spaces are stripped.

Feature #11315: [PATCH] Add Array#^ for parity with other set-like operations.
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/11315#change-53143

----------------------------------------
## Proposal

It is proposed that `Array` be given an "XOR" method which returns the symmetric difference between itself and another array.

## Rationale

`#&` and `#|` need a friend to complete the set of set-like operations on `Array`.
