PathDistance

This function returns the PathDistance of a compartment.
Function Output Type : Numeric
Calculated : At Each Tracing Point
Output:
Metric | Total_Sum | #Compartments (considered) |
#Compartments (discarded) |
Minimum | Average | Maximum | S.D. |
PathDistance | 399247 | 1554 | (0) | 0 | 256.915 | 1137.5 | 179.81 |
Output Interpretation :
PathDistance is which is the sum of lengths of each compartment from the soma point. The above example, shows the total PathDistance is 399247 microns.
Total_Sum = 399247 gives Total_Sum, Minimum = 0 gives minimum, Maximum = 1137.5 gives maximum for given input neuron.
