Simple atomic distance analysis --- :mod:`MDAnalysis.analysis.atomicdistances`
==============================================================================

This module provides a class to efficiently compute distances between
two groups of atoms with an equal number of atoms over a trajectory.
Specifically, for two atom groups ``ag1`` and ``ag2``, it will return
the distances

.. math::
    |ag1[i] - ag2[i]|

for all :math:`i` from :math:`0` to `n_atoms` :math:`- 1`, where
`n_atoms` is the number of atoms in each atom group. By default,
this computation is done with periodic boundary conditions, but this
can be easily turned off. These distances are grouped by time step in
a NumPy array.

For more general functions on computing distances between atoms or
groups of atoms, please see :class:`MDAnalysis.analysis.distances`.

Basic usage
-----------

This example uses files from the MDAnalysis test suite
(:data:`~MDAnalysis.tests.datafiles.GRO` and
:data:`~MDAnalysis.tests.datafiles.XTC`). To get started, execute  ::

   >>> import MDAnalysis as mda
   >>> from MDAnalysis.tests.datafiles import GRO, XTC
   >>> import MDAnalysis.analysis.atomicdistances as ad

We will calculate the distances between an atom group of atoms 101-105
and an atom group of atoms 4001-4005 with periodic boundary conditions.
To select these atoms: ::

   >>> u = mda.Universe(GRO, XTC)
   >>> ag1 = u.atoms[100:105]
   >>> ag2 = u.atoms[4000:4005]

We can run the calculations using any variable of choice such as
``my_dists`` and access our results using ``my_dists.results``: ::

   >>> my_dists = ad.AtomicDistances(ag1, ag2).run()
   >>> my_dists.results
   array([[37.80813681, 33.2594864 , 34.93676414, 34.51183299, 34.96340209],

          [37.51994763, 38.12161091, 37.56481743, 36.8488121 , 35.75278065],
          [37.27275501, 37.7831456 , 35.74359073, 34.54893794, 34.76495816],

To do the computation without periodic boundary conditions, we can enter
the keyword argument ``pbc=False`` after ``ag2``. The result is different
in this case: ::

   >>> my_dists_nopbc = ad.AtomicDistances(ag1, ag2, pbc=False).run()
   >>> my_dists_nopbc.results
   array([[37.80813681, 33.2594864 , 34.93676414, 34.51183299, 34.96340209],
