boost-users [boost lambda, boost foreach]
Hi, lets say i have two arbitary container of any stl type. template < class T, template <typename ELEM, typename = std::allocator<ELEM> > class CONT
typename boost::enable_if<boost::is_floating_point<T>, T>::type getManhattanDistance(const CONT<T>& ObjectX, const CONT<T>& ObjectY) I want to be able to iterate through both containers to get the euclidean distance.. i.e. sqrt of sum of each item in ObjectX - ObjectY square. Psuedocode looks like this.. /*********************************************** * getManhattanDistance(ObjectX, ObjectY) * * overAllSum <-- 0 * * for i <-- 0 to sizeof (ObjectX) * * Xn <-- ObjectX[i] * * Yn <-- ObjectY[i] * * difference <-- (Xn - Yn) * -1 * * overAllSum <-- overAllSum + difference * ***********************************************/ but i want to make it as abstract (allowing nonindexable containers) but also clear as possible without losing speed. Whats the best way to do this using boost library.
