Manuel Simon	bef01a8a86	Add traits `Distance` and `Norm` in order to provide abstract notions of distances between numbers. ... The `Norm` trait provides a `norm` function for types that represent a normed vector space – e.g. the absolute value of a float or the norm of a complex number. The `Distance` trait provides a `distance` function to still calculate the distance between two values if no sensible norm can be defined.	2019-08-07 20:53:05 +02:00
