The squad held their position until the enemy was within striking distance.

After the outage, engineers traced the problem to a misconfigured distance vector protocol that kept advertising incorrect routes.

The Manhattan distance between two grid points is the sum of their horizontal and vertical distances.

The algorithm computes the edit distance between the user's input and the dictionary entries to suggest corrections.

To calculate the lever's mechanical advantage, you must measure the resistance distance from the load to the fulcrum.

To improve performance, the game engine applies distance fog to fade out objects that are far from the camera.

When clustering points on a grid, we measured similarity using the Tchebychev distance rather than the Euclidean metric.

When programming the robot's movement on a grid, we measured the chessboard distance between its current position and the target to determine the minimum number of king moves needed.

In our clustering algorithm, we measured similarity between feature vectors using the Chebyshev distance to emphasize the largest coordinate deviations.

The longest-distance leg of the relay left the team both exhausted and exhilarated.
