Topic: Find 2 nearest points from a variant-list to a startpoint

[Peter2]

I have a startpoint with coords 10,15,0

Then I have some points, originally in a variant, but converted to list:
(10 12 10 18 9 12 8 5 7 12)

I have to find the 2 points which are the nearest to my startpoint. It's obviously not insolvable, but does anyone knows an existing solution?

Thanks

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]

1. (vl-sort listofpoints '(lambda (a b) (< (distance basepoint a) (distance basepoint b))))

The first two points in the sorted list are what you want. (car ..) (cadr ..)

Peter , your start point is some XYZ , and the others no way , it could be XYZ but it are 10 values
