# manhattan

> Calculate the [Manhattan distance](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manhattan_distance) between two points

![Manhattan distance](diagram.png "skrrt")

This module exposes the function `distance(a, b)`, which determines the Manhattan distance between points `a` and `b`.

```js

> const distance = require('manhattan')

> distance([2, 5], [4, 8])

5

```
