Doctordick Posted January 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 You can measure everything if you act in a related space and define the measurement criteria.What you seem to miss is the fact "if you act in a related space" presumes the existence of a valid or correct "related space". This is always a presumption of some valid interpretation of something. And secondly, if you "define the measurement criteria" you are presuming some basis for that definition. I am afraid you entirely miss the issue being discussed here. :naughty: Have fun -- Dick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you can measure distance between two points A1(x1,y1), A2(x2,y2) if you define dist=sqrt((x1-x2)**2 + (y1-y2)**2) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
