title: How to: Find the Set Difference Between Two Collections in Java
body: <p>I am relativly new to Java and I am wondering if there is a method like LINQs "<a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb397894.aspx" rel="nofollow">Except</a>" in C# to get the different items of two sets.</p>
  
  <p>I looked at <code>CollectionUtils</code> from apache common, <code>Collections</code> and <code>Collections2</code> from guava but found no such method.</p>
  
  <p>Btw: I am using Java 7 not Java 8.</p>
