The Distance Program

The program we will work on is designed to compute the distance between two x-y points. This program necessarily requires the input of two (2) sets of x-y coordinates. Once the input is complete, the distance between those points will be computed using the euclidean distance formula:distance_formula

The original inputs and the computed distance value will then be sent to the screen using a descriptive message. For example:

Please enter an x-coordinate: 6
Please enter a y-coordinate: 1
Please enter an x-coordinate: 0
Please enter a y-coordinate: 0

First coordinate: (6, 1)
Second coordinate: (0, 0)
Distance: 6.08
