Examples
PVector  v1 = new PVector(10, 20, 0);
PVector  v2 = new PVector(60, 80, 0); 
float d = v1.dist(v2);
println(d);  // Prints "78.10249"

PVector  v1 = new PVector(10, 20, 0);
PVector  v2 = new PVector(60, 80, 0); 
float d = PVector.dist(v1, v2);
println(d);  // Prints "78.10249"
Description Calculates the Euclidean distance between two points (considering a point as a vector object).
Syntax
vec.dist(v)
PVector.dist(v1, v2)
Parameters
vec any variable of type PVector
v PVector: the x, y, and z coordinates of a PVector object
v1 PVector: the x, y, and z coordinates of a PVector object
v2 PVector: the x, y, and z coordinates of a PVector object
Returns float
