Method Reference: datetime.setxor

datetime: C = setxor (A, B)
datetime: C = setxor (A, B, 'rows')
datetime: C = setxor (…, order)
datetime: [C, ixA, ixB] = setxor (…)

Set exclusive-or of two datetime arrays.

C = setxor (A, B) returns the unique datetime values that are in A or in B but not in both. Either input may instead be a date/time character vector, string array, or cell array of character vectors, which is promoted to a datetime array before the operation. Membership is decided on the absolute instant, so two zoned inputs may be in different time zones; the result carries the time zone and display format of A. Distinct NaT elements are all retained. C is a row vector when both A and B are row vectors and a column vector otherwise.

C = setxor (A, B, 'rows') treats each row of the datetime matrices A and B, which must have the same number of columns, as a single element and returns the rows that are in one input but not both.

… = setxor (…, order) returns the values in 'sorted' order (the default) or in 'stable' order.

[C, ixA, ixB] = setxor (…) also returns index vectors ixA and ixB such that C is the combination of A(ixA) and B(ixB), or the corresponding row selections when 'rows' is used.
