Hello,

I am really a beginner with CGAL so, please, forgive my very basic question.
But I have looked in the documentation and did not find an answer.

How would it be possible to compute the distance between a point set and
another point which is not in that point set? How would it be possible to
compute the distance between two point sets (that is the distance between
their two closest points and not between their hulls)?

I have searched in the documentation but I have only found a function that
give the k closest neighbours of a point in a point set and function that
returns the distance between the convex hulls of 2 point sets but not
between their closest points.

Thank you!

Cheers,

Philippe
