The routine computes the SensedMagnitude between two points A and B.

The sign of the sensed magnitude is determined by the relative position of the points.

The command with(geometry,SensedMagnitude) allows the use of the abbreviated form of this command.

$\mathrm{with}\left(\mathrm{geometry}\right)\:$

$\mathrm{point}\left(A\,1\,0\right),\mathrm{point}\left(B\,2\,2\right)\:$

$\mathrm{SensedMagnitude}\left(A\,B\right)$

$\sqrt{5}$

$\mathrm{SensedMagnitude}\left(B\,A\right)$

$-\sqrt{5}$

$\mathrm{point}\left(A\,1\,0\right),\mathrm{point}\left(B\,3\,0\right)\:$

$\mathrm{SensedMagnitude}\left(A\,B\right)$

$\sqrt{4}$

$\mathrm{SensedMagnitude}\left(B\,A\right)$

$-\sqrt{4}$
