euclidean.distance.f: Euclidean distance function

Description

This function is ancillary to mat.dissim and gives the distance from point A to B on a plane in the units of x and y.

Usage

euclidean.distance.f( fossite,modsite)

Arguments

modsite
Vector: containing the x and y Euclidean values for a point.
fossite
Vector: containing the x and y Euclidean values for another point.

Value

A numeric single value representing the direction between the two points.

Details

Provides the quadrat correct direction from fossite to modsite.
