ee.Number.hypot
Calculates the magnitude of the 2D vector [x, y].
Usage | Returns | Number.hypot(right) | Number |
Argument | Type | Details | this: left | Number | The left-hand value. |
right | Number | The right-hand value. |
Examples
Code Editor (JavaScript)
// Left input is x and right input is y, representing point (x,y).
print('Length from origin to point (0,0)', ee.Number(0).hypot(0)); // 0
print('Length from origin to point (3,0)', ee.Number(3).hypot(0)); // 3
print('Length from origin to point (3,4)', ee.Number(3).hypot(4)); // 5
print('Length from origin to point (-3,4)', ee.Number(-3).hypot(4)); // 5
print('Length from origin to point (-3,-4)', ee.Number(-3).hypot(-4)); // 5
