% This function takes two n-dimensional vectors as input and calculates the euclidean distance
function distance = euclidean_distance(coordinate_1,coordinate_2)
if length(coordinate_1) ~= length(coordinate_2)
disp('Dimensions of vectors do not match!')
distance = NaN;
else
sum = 0;
for i=1:1:length(coordinate_1)
difference = (coordinate_2(i)-coordinate_1(i))^2;
sum = sum + difference;
end
distance = sqrt(sum);
