Calculates the distance between two points represented by vectors.
A point's coordinates can be represented by the components of a vector that extends from the origin to the point.
The static version of dist(), as in p5.Vector.dist(v1, v2), is the same as calling v1.dist(v2).
Use dist() to calculate the distance between points using coordinates as in dist(x1, y1, x2, y2).
Examples
Syntax
dist(v)
Parameters
v
p5.Vector: x, y, and z coordinates of a p5.Vector.
Returns
Number: distance.
