	Func<TSource, TKey> keySelector,
	IEqualityComparer<TKey>? keyComparer = null
)

Parameters

source
Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableTSource
A sequence whose elements that are not also in second will be returned.
other
Type: System.Collections.GenericIEnumerableTSource
A sequence whose elements that also occur in the first sequence will cause those elements to be removed from the returned sequence.
keySelector
Type: SystemFuncTSource, TKey
A delegate that returns the key used to test equality between elements.
keyComparer (Optional)
Type: System.Collections.GenericIEqualityComparerTKey
A comparer used to test equality between keys (can be null).

Type Parameters

TSource
The type of the elements of the input sequences.
TKey
The type of the key used for testing equality between elements.

Return Value

Type: IEnumerableTSource
A sequence that contains the set difference of the elements of two sequences.
