### VectorDistance
Returns the distance between two vectors.
Use `Array.prototype.reduce()`,`Math.pow()` and `Math.sqrt()` to calculate the Euclidean distance between two vectors.
```js
const vectorDistance = (...coords) => {
let pointLength = Math.trunc(coords.length/2);
let sum = coords.slice(0,pointLength).reduce((accumulator,currentValue,currentIndex) => accumulator + (Math.pow(currentValue-coords[pointLength+currentIndex],2)),0);
return Math.sqrt(sum);
}
```
```js
vectorDistance(10,0,5,20,0,10) //11.180339887498949
```
