Source sentences:
text: (Distance is positive between two different points, and is zero precisely from a point to itself.)
text: Since | p − q | 2 {\displaystyle |\mathbf {p} -\mathbf {q} |^{2}} must be a positive number, this distance is greater than | p |
text: Some authors allow the distance function d to attain the value ∞, i.e. distances are non-negative numbers on the extended real number line.
text: (Distance is positive between two different points, and is zero precisely from a point to itself.)
text: For example, that the distance between distinct points is positive and the distance from x to y is the same as the distance from y to x.
text: Remember that we are dealing with distances, which are inherently positive.
