Chapter 2 Challenge 9 Question

For the challenge x1,y1,x2,y2

val distance: Double = sqrt(dx * dx + dy * dy)

There is no way a student can be expected to solve this problem after reading Chapter 2 of the book.

Chapter 2 of the book says nothing about calculating coordinates using square roots. I think challenges like that are very a-motivational for students because you are setting us up for failure.

If I see more challenges like that in the future of the book I am just going to send it back to Amazon for a refund. Im talking about if I see more challenges that are impossible to solve because you do not present us with the prerequisite data. It is depressing to a student.

@delv7 Thank you for your feedback - much appreciated! I will forward it to the book team.
