Distance | Mathematical chess problems | Metric geometry
In mathematics, Chebyshev distance (or Tchebychev distance), maximum metric, or L∞ metric is a metric defined on a vector space where the distance between two vectors is the greatest of their differences along any coordinate dimension. It is named after Pafnuty Chebyshev. It is also known as chessboard distance, since in the game of chess the minimum number of moves needed by a king to go from one square on a chessboard to another equals the Chebyshev distance between the centers of the squares, if the squares have side length one, as represented in 2-D spatial coordinates with axes aligned to the edges of the board. For example, the Chebyshev distance between f6 and e2 equals 4. (Wikipedia).

http://www.teachastronomy.com/ The astronomical unit is defined as the mean distance between the Earth and the Sun. It has to be defined as the mean because the orbit is elliptical by a couple of percent. The astronomical unit is 150 million kilometers or 98 million miles. This sets the

The normal curve is the most important distribution in statistics. When distributions differ from normality, we describe them with kurtosis (leptokurtic, platykurtic, mesokurtic), with skewness (positive or negative), and with modality (unimodal, bimodal, multimodal). In addition to those
