[−][src]Trait acap::distance::Distance

pub trait Distance where
    Self: Copy,
    Self: Into<Self::Value>,
    Self: PartialOrd<Self::Value>,
    Self::Value: PartialOrd<Self>,
    Self: PartialOrd, {
    type Value: Value;
    fn value(self) -> Self::Value { ... }
}

A distance between two points.

An implementation may be an actual numerical distance, or an order embedding of the true distance. This allows for optimizations whenever distances can be compared more efficiently than their exact values can be computed, as is the case for Euclidean distance. Implementors must satisfy, for all distances x and y:

  • x < y iff x.value() < y.value()
  • x.value() < y iff x.value() < y.value()
  • x < y.value() iff x.value() < y.value()
