Manhattan distance

edit

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia. I have a couple of questions about the picture you added to taxicab geometry. Firstly, it is not clear to me what the picture actually shows. Secondly, why did you include it in the article? Is the point solely that the Manhattan distance differs from the Euclidean distance, or is there a deeper statement? I'd be grateful if you could clarify this.
