The closest observation to a pair
Below you see a pre-calculated distance matrix between four players on a soccer field. You can clearly see that players 1 & 4 are the closest to one another with a Euclidean distance value of 10.
1 | 2 | 3 | |
---|---|---|---|
2 | 11.7 | ||
3 | 16.8 | 18.0 | |
4 | 10.0 | 20.6 | 15.8 |
If 1 and 4 are the closest players among the four, which player is closest to players 1 and 4?
