Q3Param2D_DistanceSquared

You can use the Q3Param2D_DistanceSquared function to determine the square of the distance between two two-dimensional parametric points.

float Q3Param2D_DistanceSquared (
const TQ3Param2D *p1, 
const TQ3Param2D *p2);

p1

A two-dimensional parametric point.

p2

A two-dimensional parametric point.

DESCRIPTION

The Q3Param2D_DistanceSquared function returns, as its function result, the square of the distance between parametric points p1 and p2.
