my(@rray2)=('red','orange','yellow','green','blue','indigo','violet');

# If I got something like this, I usually do it this way:
# 1. Make a hash out of the array you want to check:
my (%hash);
@hash{@rray1}= ();

# 2. Delete everything from that hash that's in @rray2
delete @hash{@rray2};

# 3. What's left over is what you're searching
print join("\n", keys %hash),"\n";
