Short description🔗

distance_ssDistanceSsDistanceSsdistance_ssdistance_ss — Calculate the distances between two line segments.

Signature🔗

distance_ss( point.y RowA1, point.x ColumnA1, point.y RowA2, point.x ColumnA2, point.y RowB1, point.x ColumnB1, point.y RowB2, point.x ColumnB2, out real DistanceMin, out real DistanceMax )

Description🔗

The operator distance_ssDistanceSs calculates the minimum and maximum distance between two line segments. As input the coordinates of the start and end point of the first line segment (RowA1rowA1row_a1,ColumnA1columnA1column_a1, RowA2rowA2row_a2,ColumnA2columnA2column_a2) and of the second line segment (RowB1rowB1row_b1,ColumnB1columnB1column_b1,RowB2rowB2row_b2,ColumnB2columnB2column_b2) are used. The parameters DistanceMindistanceMindistance_min and DistanceMaxdistanceMaxdistance_max return the result of the calculation. If the line segments are intersecting, DistanceMindistanceMindistance_min returns zero.

Parameter Broadcasting🔗

This operator supports parameter broadcasting. This means that each parameter can be given as a tuple of length 1 or N. Parameters with tuple length 1 will be repeated internally such that the number of computed distances is always N.

Execution information🔗

Execution information

Multithreading type: reentrant (runs in parallel with non-exclusive operators).
Multithreading scope: global (may be called from any thread).
Automatically parallelized on internal data level.
