[section Introduction]
Suppose you need to write C++ program to calculate distance between two points.
You might define a type of point:
struct mypoint
{
double x, y;
};
and function that defines algorithm calculating distance between two points:
double distance(mypoint const& a, mypoint const& b)
{
double dx = a.x - b.x;
double dy = a.y - b.y;
return sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy);
}
Quite simple, and it is usable, but not generic. For a library it has to be
designed way further. The design above can only be used for 2D points,
for the type `struct mypoint` (and no other type), in a Cartesian coordinate system.
A generic library should be able to calculate the distance:
* for any type of point, not on just this `struct mypoint`
* in more than two dimensions
* for other coordinate systems, e.g. over the Earth or on a sphere
* between a point and a line or between other geometry combinations
* in higher precision than `double`
* avoiding the square root: often we don’t want to do that because it is a relatively expensive function, and for comparing distances it is not necessary.
In this page we will make the design step by step more generic.
