  • (euclidean-distance a b)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_distance

the Euclidean distance or Euclidean metric is the ordinary distance between two points that one would measure with a ruler, and is given by the Pythagorean formula. By using this formula as distance, Euclidean space (or even any inner product space) becomes a metric space. The associated norm is called the Euclidean norm. Older literature refers to the metric as Pythagorean metric.
