sql
ParameterTypeRequiredDescription
array1ARRAY<DOUBLE>YesFirst vector (array of doubles)
array2ARRAY<DOUBLE>YesSecond vector (array of doubles)

Notes

  • Computes L2 distance between two vectors
  • Formula: sqrt(sum((x[i] - y[i])^2))
  • Arrays must be same length
  • Used in ML, clustering, and similarity calculations
