getDistanceDataForPaths {TrajectoryGeometry} | R Documentation

## Produce distance statistics for random paths

### Description

This function takes a list of paths and a choice of statistic (median, mean or max) and returns that statistic for the appropriate center for each path. Each path is an n x d matrix. In use, it is assumed that these will be the randomized paths. It is therefore assumed that they are already of the correct dimensions.

### Usage

    getDistanceDataForPaths(paths, statistic)

### Arguments

`paths` | - A list of paths. Each of these is an n x d matrix.
`statistic` | - Allowable values are 'median', 'mean' or 'max'.

### Value

This returns a vector of n distances.

### Examples

    paths =
        generateRandomPaths(path=straight_path,randomizationParam='bySteps',N=5)
    distance = getDistanceDataForPaths(paths=paths,statistic='max')
