Distance
Distance is a numerical or occasionally qualitative measurement of how far apart objects, points, people, or ideas are. In physics or everyday usage, distance may refer to a physical length or an estimation based on other criteria. The term is also frequently used metaphorically to mean a measurement of the amount of difference between two similar objects or a degree of separation. Most such notions of distance, both physical and metaphorical, are formalized in mathematics using the notion of a metric space.
