ee.Number.hypot

  • Number.hypot calculates the magnitude of a 2D vector [x, y].

  • The method takes two Number arguments, left (x) and right (y).

  • It returns a Number representing the calculated magnitude.

  • Examples demonstrate calculating the length from the origin to a point (x,y) using hypot .

Calculates the magnitude of the 2D vector [x, y].
Usage Returns
Number. hypot (right) Number
Argument Type Details
this: left
Number The left-hand value.
right
Number The right-hand value.
