Computes the matrix of distances between all pairs of points in a three-dimensional point pattern.
# S3 method for pp3
pairdist(X, …, periodic=FALSE, squared=FALSE)
A point pattern (object of class "pp3"
).
Ignored.
Logical. Specifies whether to apply a periodic edge correction.
Logical. If squared=TRUE
, the squared distances are
returned instead (this computation is faster).
A square matrix whose [i,j]
entry is the distance
between the points numbered i
and j
.
This is a method for the generic function pairdist
.
Given a three-dimensional point pattern X
(an object of class "pp3"
),
this function computes the Euclidean distances between all pairs of
points in X
, and returns the matrix of distances.
Alternatively if periodic=TRUE
and the window containing X
is a
box, then the distances will be computed in the `periodic'
sense (also known as `torus' distance): opposite faces of the
box are regarded as equivalent.
This is meaningless if the window is not a box.
If squared=TRUE
then the squared Euclidean distances

X <- runifpoint3(20)
d <- pairdist(X)
d <- pairdist(X, periodic=TRUE)
d <- pairdist(X, squared=TRUE)
