Distance from a point to a line segment in 3d (Python)
问题 I am looking for Python function that would compute distance from a point in 3D (x_0,y_0,z_0) to a line segment defined by its endpoints (x_1,y_1,z_1) and (x_2,y_2,z_2). I have only found solution for 2D for this problem. There are solutions to finding a distance from a point to a line in 3d, but not to a line segment, like here: (picture taken from Calculate distance point to line segment with special cases) 回答1: This answer is adapted from here: Calculate the euclidian distance between an
