SDIFFSTORE

Syntax

SDIFFSTORE destination key [key ...]

Time complexity: O(N) where N is the total number of elements in all given sets.

ACL categories: @write, @set, @slow

This command is equal to SDIFF, but instead of returning the resulting set, it is stored in destination.

If destination already exists, it is overwritten.

Return

Integer reply: the number of elements in the resulting set.
