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 distanceimports the distance module from SciPy.point1andpoint2are 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.
