compute_tour_distance {gor}

Compute the distance of a TSP tour

Description

It computes the distance covered by a tour in a Traveling Salesman Problem

Usage

compute_tour_distance(h, d)

Arguments

h

A tour specified by a vertex sequence

d

Distance matrix to use

Details

This function simply add the distances in a distance matrix indicated by a vertex sequence defining a tour. It takes into account that, in a tour, the last vertex is joined to the first one by an edge, and adds its distance to the result, unlike compute_path_distance.

Value

The tour distance

d(\{v_1,...,v_n\}) = \sum_{j=1}^n d(v_j,v_{(j mod n) + 1}).

Examples

set.seed(1)
n <- 25
z <- cbind(runif(n,min=1,max=10),runif(n,min=1,max=10))
d <- compute_distance_matrix(z)
h <- sample(1:n)              # A random tour
compute_tour_distance(h, d)   # 114.58
