Background: This assignment will help you further learn to use multidimensional arrays.

You will need a 10x2 matrix for this problem.

Consider 10 points on a map, You need to identify the distance between each point (or vertex). A vertex requires two pieces of information. An x,y coordinate (think longitude and latitude.) This is why you have a matrix of 10x2, each entry is the two values you will need.

You can think of these points a cities, or friend's houses. We're only looking for a direct route (as the crow flies) not taking roads to make it simpler.

You can find the distance between any two points by use of: sqr_root((x1 - x2)^2 + (y1 - y2)^2)

You will need to fill your matrix with some random values.

Then you will need to calculate the distance between each possible point, eventually displaying it on a matrix in output.

Think something like:

     1      2      3      4      5  

1   0      8     12     4     6

2   8      0      7 ....

3  12     7 ....

4    4 ...

5    6 ...

Hint: You may want to display the point values somewhere as well.

Hint: There should be a section where each value is 0, as the distance from a point to itself if zero (0)
