NAME


       hypot, hypotf, hypotl - Euclidean distance function

 

SYNOPSIS


       #include 

       double hypot(double x, double y);
       float hypotf(float x, float y);
       long double hypotl(long double x, long double y);

       Link with -lm.

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       hypot(), hypotf(), hypotl(): _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE ||
       _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 500 || _ISOC99_SOURCE; or cc -std=c99

 

DESCRIPTION






       The hypot() function returns sqrt(x*x+y*y).  This is the length of  the
       hypotenuse  of  a right-angle triangle with sides of length x and y, or
       the distance of the point (x,y) from the origin.

 

CONFORMING TO


       SVr4, 4.3BSD, C99.  The float and long double variants are C99 require-
       ments.
