Math::SquaredDistancePointToLine

Defined in: C4Computation.h

Calculates the squared distance from a point to a line.

Prototype

float SquaredDistancePointToLine(const Point3D& q, const Point3D& s, const Vector3D& v);

Parameters

`q`	The point Q.
`s`	The origin S of the line.
`v`	The direction V of the line.

Description

The SquaredDistancePointToLine function returns the squared perpendicular distance from the point Q given by the q parameter to the line S + t · V given by the s and v parameters.
