python-scipyHow can I calculate the distance between two points using Python and SciPy?
The distance between two points can be calculated using Python and SciPy with the following code:
from scipy.spatial import distance
point1 = (1, 2)
point2 = (4, 6)
dist = distance.euclidean(point1, point2)
print(dist)
This will output 5.0
.
The code uses the following parts:
from scipy.spatial import distance
imports the distance module from SciPy.point1
andpoint2
are tuples containing the coordinates of the two points.distance.euclidean(point1, point2)
calculates the Euclidean distance between the two points.print(dist)
prints the distance to the console.
