cosineDist {YAPSA} | R Documentation

## Compute the cosine distance of two vectors

### Description

Compute the cosine distance of two vectors

### Usage

    cosineDist(a, b)

### Arguments

`a, b` | Numerical vectors of same length

### Value

The scalar product of the two input vectors divided by the product of the norms of the two input vectors

### Examples

    ## 1. Orthogonal vectors:
    cosineDist(c(1,0),c(0,1))
    ## 2. Non-orthogonal vectors:
    cosineDist(c(1,0),c(1,1))
    ## Compare trigonometry:
    1-cos(pi/4)
