Pairwise shortest-path distances between points on a linear network
Given a pattern of points on a linear network, compute the matrix of distances between all pairs of points, measuring distance by the shortest path in the network.

Given a pattern of points on a linear network, this function computes the matrix of distances between all pairs of points, measuring distance by the shortest path in the network.
If two points cannot be joined by a path,
the distance between them is infinite (Inf
).
The argument method
is not normally used. It is
retained only for developers to check the validity of the software.
A symmetric matrix, whose values are nonnegative numbers or infinity
(Inf
).
Distances are accurate within the numerical tolerance of the
network, summary(X)$toler
.
For network data stored in the non-sparse
representation described in linnet
,
then pairwise distances are computed using the matrix of path distances
between vertices of the network, using R code if
method = "interpreted"
, or using C code if
method="C"
(the default).
For networks stored in the sparse representation,
the argument method
has no effect, and the distances are
computed using an efficient C algorithm.
