While sometimes under the radar screen, borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a condition more common than schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and is estimated to affect 2 percent of the population.rullâs study, âChromosome 9: linkage for borderline personality disorderâ was recently published in Psychiatic Genetics and âHeritability of borderline personality disorder features is similar across three countriesâ was published in Psychological Medicine.
Taxicab geometry is a form of geometry, where the distance between two points A and B is not the length of the line segment AB as in the Euclidean geometry, but the sum of the absolute differences of their coordinates.
The distance along a line is undefined until a unit distance, such as. 1 inch or 1 centimeter, is chosen. You can use a ruler to find the. distance between two points on a line. The distance is the. absolute value of the difference of the numbers on the ruler that. correspond to the two points. This distance is the length of the. segment determined by the points.
