squaredDistanceTo method

@override num squaredDistanceTo(Point<num> other)

Returns the squared distance between this and other.

Squared distances can be used for comparisons when the actual value is not required.

Example:

var squaredDistance =
    const Point(0, 0).squaredDistanceTo(const Point(0, 0)); // 0.0
squaredDistance =
    const Point(0, 0).squaredDistanceTo(const Point(10, 0)); // 100
squaredDistance =
    const Point(0, 0).squaredDistanceTo(const Point(0, -10)); // 100
squaredDistance =
    const Point(-10, 0).squaredDistanceTo(const Point(100, 0)); // 12100

Implementation

@override
num squaredDistanceTo(Point<num> other) => $value.squaredDistanceTo(other);
