# PairDistance

Computes the distance between two edges of an Edge data structure. PairDistance references two edges, by index number, and reports the distance between their midpoints. The segment over which the edge-to-edge distance is computed is derived from the region originally used to extract the edges from the image.

Note: If the PairDistance function Functions are tools that are available in Spreadsheet for processing and analyzing acquisitions or other results. You can add functions to your Spreadsheet job to create tool chains and produce results for specific applications. is added to an Abs Math formula, [for example, Abs(B2)+PairDistance(C2,0,1)] it is recommended to insert the PairDistance function in its own spreadsheet cell and use Cell References into the Abs formula.
Inputs

Parameter | Description
Edges | A reference to a spreadsheet cell containing an Edge data structure, which must consist of multiple straight-line edges.
First Edge | Specifies the index number (0 to 10000; default = 0) of the first edge of an edge pair.
Second Edge | Specifies the index number (0 to 10000; default = 1) of the second edge of an edge pair.

Outputs

Returns | A value representing the linear distance between edges, or #ERR if any of the input parameters are invalid.
