Please consider:
daList = {{{21, 18}, {20, 18}, {18, 17}, {20, 15}},
{{21, 18}, {20, 18}, {21, 14}, {21, 14}}};
I would like to compute the distance between each point in the 2 sub-lists of that list:
Yet I need to use a Function
to apply at the correct level:
Function[seqNo,
EuclideanDistance[#, {0, 0}] & /@ daList[[seqNo]]] /@
Range[Length@daList]
out = {{3 Sqrt[85], 2 Sqrt[181], Sqrt[613], 25}, {3 Sqrt[85], 2 Sqrt[181],
7 Sqrt[13], 7 Sqrt[13]}}
Is there a way to avoid this heavy function there? To specify the level avoiding my Function with seqNo as argument? :
EuclideanDistance[#, {0, 0}] & /@ daList
out={EuclideanDistance[{{21, 18}, {20, 18}, {18, 17}, {20, 15}}, {0, 0}],
EuclideanDistance[{{21, 18}, {20, 18}, {21, 14}, {21, 14}}, {0, 0}]}
Have you tried the Level specification in Map?
Map[EuclideanDistance[#, {0, 0}] &, daList, {2}]
gives
{{3 Sqrt[85],2 Sqrt[181],Sqrt[613],25},{3 Sqrt[85],2 Sqrt[181],7 Sqrt[13],7 Sqrt[13]}}
