VDistance | SuperCollider 3.13.0 Help

Description

VDistance computes the distance between two vectors by calculating the length of their difference, essentially VLength.pr(v - u).

Supported Rates: frame, shape, pixel

Class Methods

.pr

Make a VDistance VGen at the requested rate

Arguments:

u	First vector input for distance computation.
v	Second vector input for distance computation.

Returns:

The distance between u and v.

// This example uses the Distance operator to plot the distance at each pixel to the
// moving point on three different Lissajous curves, one in each color channel.
// The dot parameter controls the size of the dot around each curve, by scaling how
// quickly the dot will drive the length to the clamp values as distance from each
// Lissajous point increases.
