Definition

EN

shortest path length (path length) between two points in a metric space

FR

longueur curviligne (path length) la plus courte entre deux points dans un espace métrique

Notes

EN

A metric space might be curved. An example of a curved metric space is the surface of the Earth.

In this case, distances are measured along great circles.

A metric is not necessarily Euclidean.

FR

Un espace métrique peut être courbe. Un exemple d'espace métrique courbe est la surface de la Terre.

Dans ce cas, les distances sont mesurées le long de grands cercles.

Une métrique n'est pas nécessairement euclidienne.
