l2_distance
Description
Calculate the distance between two points (vector values are coordinates) in Euclidean space
Syntax
L2_DISTANCE(<array1>, <array2>)
Parameters
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
<array1> | The first vector (the vector value is the coordinate),The subtypes of the input array are: TINYINT, SMALLINT, INT, BIGINT, LARGEINT, FLOAT, DOUBLE, The number of elements must be consistent with array2 |
<array2> | The second vector (the vector value is the coordinate), the subtype of the input array supports: TINYINT, SMALLINT, INT, BIGINT, LARGEINT, FLOAT, DOUBLE, the number of elements must be consistent with array1 |
Return Value
Returns the distance between two points (vector values are coordinates) in Euclidean space. If the input array is NULL, or any element in the array is NULL, then NULL is returned.
Example
SELECT L2_DISTANCE([4, 5], [6, 8]),L2_DISTANCE([3, 6], [4, 5]);
