The L1-norm.

Pascal
function NormL1(const Vec: TDenseMtxVec; RelativeError: boolean = False): double; overload;
Returns

L-1 norm, defined by: ||V-Vec||, where V is calling vector.

Description

If the NormL1 is called without any parameters, the NormL1 calculates the norm of calling vector. The L1 norm of ||V-Vec|| is defined by the formula: 

 

If RelativeError is true then the computed norm is divided by the norm of V, and the function returns the "relative error":
