I am trying to figure out the word/operation to what is not in the intersection of two sets but is in their union.
How I am going about this now is $$(A \cup B) - (A \cap B)$$
Is there a better way to go about this?

$$(A \cup B) - (A \cap B)$$ Is called the symmetric difference and is often denoted by $$ A \Delta B $$
It is analogous to the logical "exclusive or" operation (as union is analogous to "or" and intersection is analogous to "and").
