Method Detail

Pam3dRangeCalc

public static double Pam3dRangeCalc(Coordinate3d a,
                    Coordinate3d b)

Given two Coordinate3d objects, return the distance between them.

dist

public static double dist(double[] a,
          double[] b)

Given two N-element vectors representing positions, return the distance between them. This is just the L2-norm of the two vectors. see See also CoordUtils.norm().

dist

public static double dist(double[] a,
          double[] b,
          int n)

Given two N-element vectors representing positions, return the distance between them. This is just the L2-norm of the two vectors. This one differs from the one above in the N is specified explicitly.

see See also CoordUtils.norm().

sumSquared

public static double sumSquared(double[] x)

Find the sum of squares of a vector.

see See also CoordUtils.dist().
