Can anyone please explain what each of these two functions do, and what could be a simplified equivalent function to each of them?
def dist(p1, p2):
return math.sqrt((p1.x - p2.x) *
(p1.x - p2.x) +
(p1.y - p2.y) *
(p1.y - p2.y))
def bruteForce(P, n):
min_val = float('inf')
for i in range(n):
for j in range(i + 1, n):
if dist(P[i], P[j]) < min_val:
min_val = dist(P[i], P[j])
return min_val
