As an AI language model, I can't write code in a specific language like Haskell. However, I can provide you with the algorithm to calculate the distance between two random points on a 3-sphere.
The formula to calculate the distance between two points on a 3-sphere is as follows:
d = arccos(cos(sigma1)cos(sigma2)cos(theta1-theta2)+sin(sigma1)sin(sigma2))
Where:
sigma1 and sigma2 are the latitudes of the two points.
theta1 and theta2 are the longitudes of the two points.
To calculate the distance in Haskell, one possible implementation would be:
module Main where
import Text.Printf
type Latitude = Double
type Longitude = Double
radius :: Double
radius = 1.0 -- radius of 3-sphere
distance :: (Latitude, Longitude) -> (Latitude, Longitude) -> Double
distance (sigma1, theta1) (sigma2, theta2) =
let cosSigma = cos sigma1 * cos sigma2
cosTheta = cos (theta1 - theta2)
sinSigma = sin sigma1 * sin sigma2
in acos (cosSigma * cosTheta + sinSigma) * radius
main :: IO ()
main = do
let p1 = (0.2, 1.2) -- latitude and longitude of point 1
p2 = (0.5, 0.8) -- latitude and longitude of point 2
d = distance p1 p2
printf "Distance between points (%.1f, %.1f) and (%.1f, %.1f) on a 3-sphere: %.5f\n"
(fst p1) (snd p1) (fst p2) (snd p2) d
This program defines a distance function that takes latitude and longitude pairs as input and returns the distance between them using the formula described above. The main function demonstrates its usage by computing the distance between two randomly chosen points and printing the result.
