| Kernel::FT | squared_distance ( Type1<Kernel> obj1, Type2<Kernel> obj2) | |
| computes the square of the Euclidean distance between two geometric objects. For arbitrary geometric objects obj1 and obj2 the squared distance is defined as the minimal squared_distance(p1, p2), where p1 is a point of obj1 and p2 is a point of obj2. Note that for objects that have an inside (a bounded region), this inside is part of the object. So, the squared distance from a point inside is zero, not the squared distance to the closest point on the boundary. | ||
