MinkowskiDistanceMetric

This class implements a Minkowski distance metric. The metric is a generalization of L(p) distances: Euclidean distance and Manhattan distance. If you need for a special case of p = 1 or p = 2, use ManhattanDistanceMetric, EuclideanDistanceMetric. This class is useful for high exponents.
