> R analogs: dist()
> this issue suggests to provide routine for distance and squared distance matrix computation. 
> Since most of the use actually requires or can use square distance routine, we suggest to provide both squared and non-squared eucledian distance matrices. 
> By convention, distributed versions are prepended by (d) letter:
> dist(x)
> sqDist(x)
> dsqDist
> The points are assumed to be row-wise. 
> We also provide variation for pair-wise distance matrix of two different inputs x and y: 
> sqDist(x,y)
> dsqDist(x,y).
