## Compute set difference

### Description

    interval_difference(x, y, check_valid = TRUE)

### Arguments

`x` | An `"Intervals"` or `"Intervals_full"` object.
`y` | An `"Intervals"` or `"Intervals_full"` object, with a `type` slot matching that of `x`.
`check_valid` | Should `validObject` be called on `x` and `y` before passing to compiled code? Also see `interval_overlap`.
