Question

python program  to calculate distance between two points taking input from the user.

Answer 1

Write a python program to calculate distance between two points taking input from the user

Distance can be calculated using the two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂), the distance d between these points is given by the formula:

for e.g : let x_{1 ,} y₁=10,9    and x₂ , y₂=4,1 then (x₂-x₁)²=(10-4)² = 6² = 36 and (y₂-y₁)²= (9-1)² = 8² = 64 now  64 + 36 =100 and 100 is square root of 10 sp distance between (10,9) and (4,1) is 10 . 

Program-1 

x1=int(input("enter x1 : ")) x2=int(input("enter x2 : ")) y1=int(input("enter y1 : ")) y2=int(input("enter y2 : ")) result= ((((x2 - x1 )**2) + ((y2-y1)**2) )**0.5) print("distance between",(x1,x2),"and",(y1,y2),"is : ",result)

Output 

enter x1 : 4 

enter x2 : 6 

enter y1 : 0 

enter y2 : 6 

distance between (4, 6) and (0, 6) is : 6.324555320336759

Program -2 

import math a=input("enter first coordinate : ") p1 = a.split(",") b=input("enter second coordinate : ") p2 = b.split(",") distance = math.sqrt( ((int(p1[0])-int(p2[0]))**2)+((int(p1[1])-int(p2[1]))**2) ) print("distance between ", a,"and", b, "is",distance)

Output 

enter first coordinate: 4,0

enter second coordinate : 6,6

distance between 4,0 and 6,6 is 6.324555320336759
