The straight-line distance between two points, as a number; measure a span instead of deriving it (a hexagon's second-vertex-over, say).

• Point A (point): the first point.
• Point B (point): the second point.

• Distance (number): the straight-line distance between them, in mm.

The span between two points as a number, for when a later step needs a measurement rather than a shape. Handy for deriving one dimension from another: the width of a tile from two corners you already built, fed into a Spacing input so the repeat always fits.

It reads one point from each socket, the first, so a list of points still gives a single number.
