Return distance metric? #11

Open apiszcz opened 3 years ago

apiszcz commented 3 years ago

Other ANN libraries return the index array of the closest vectors and optionally the distance metric in a second array. Is that possible or in future plans? Thanks.

the API once had that distance, but I think the distance was not useful and would slower the performance.

I would consider add this API in 0.2.0
