Description
The Chebyshev distance is the maximum absolute difference between the vector elements.
Usage
chebyshev(x, y)
Arguments
x , y |
Numeric vectors |
Details
For vectors x
and y
, the Chebyshev distance is defined as
d(x, y) = \max_i |x_i - y_i|.
Relation to other definitions:
Equivalent to the
chebyshev()
function inscipy.spatial.distance
.
Value
The Chebyshev distance between x
and y
.
Examples
x <- c(15, 6, 4, 0, 3, 0)
y <- c(10, 2, 0, 1, 1, 0)
chebyshev(x, y) # should be 5
