  1. # arr-union [![NPM version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/arr-union.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/arr-union) [![Build Status](https://img.shields.io/travis/jonschlinkert/arr-union.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/arr-union)
  2. > Combines a list of arrays, returning a single array with unique values, using strict equality for comparisons.
  3. ## Install
  4. Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
  5. ```sh
  6. $ npm i arr-union --save
  7. ```
  8. ## Benchmarks
  9. This library is **10-20 times faster** and more performant than [array-union](https://github.com/sindresorhus/array-union).
  10. See the [benchmarks](./benchmark).
  11. ```sh
  12. #1: five-arrays
  13. array-union x 511,121 ops/sec ±0.80% (96 runs sampled)
  14. arr-union x 5,716,039 ops/sec ±0.86% (93 runs sampled)
  15. #2: ten-arrays
  16. array-union x 245,196 ops/sec ±0.69% (94 runs sampled)
  17. arr-union x 1,850,786 ops/sec ±0.84% (97 runs sampled)
  18. #3: two-arrays
  19. array-union x 563,869 ops/sec ±0.97% (94 runs sampled)
  20. arr-union x 9,602,852 ops/sec ±0.87% (92 runs sampled)
  21. ```
  22. ## Usage
  23. ```js
  24. var union = require('arr-union');
  25. union(['a'], ['b', 'c'], ['d', 'e', 'f']);
  26. //=> ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f']
  27. ```
  28. Returns only unique elements:
  29. ```js
  30. union(['a', 'a'], ['b', 'c']);
  31. //=> ['a', 'b', 'c']
  32. ```
