Function distances::vectors::chebyshev

source ·
pub fn chebyshev<T: Number>(x: &[T], y: &[T]) -> T
Expand description

Chebyshev distance between two vectors.

Also known as the L∞-norm, the Chebyshev distance is defined as the maximum absolute difference between the corresponding elements of the two vectors.

See the crate::vectors module documentation for information on this function’s potentially unexpected behaviors

§Arguments

  • x - The first slice of Numbers.
  • y - The second slice of Numbers.

§Examples

use distances::vectors::chebyshev;

let x: Vec<f64> = vec![1.0, 2.0, 3.0];
let y: Vec<f64> = vec![6.0, 5.0, 4.0];

let distance: f64 = chebyshev(&x, &y);

assert!((distance - 5.0).abs() <= f64::EPSILON);
