Note that this VTK example is simply a filler so we can do VTK packaging in the CMake (below).

DistanceBetweenPoints.cxx

<source lang="cpp">

1. include <vtkMath.h>

int main(int, char *[]) {

 // Create two points.
 double p0[3] = {0.0, 0.0, 0.0};
 double p1[3] = {1.0, 1.0, 1.0};

 // Find the squared distance between the points.
 double squaredDistance = vtkMath::Distance2BetweenPoints(p0, p1);

 // Take the square root to get the Euclidean distance between the points.
 double distance = sqrt(squaredDistance);

 // Output the results.
 std::cout << "SquaredDistance = " << squaredDistance << std::endl;
 std::cout << "Distance = " << distance << std::endl;

 return EXIT_SUCCESS;
