`#include <CGAL/Surface_mesh_simplification/Policies/Edge_collapse/Edge_length_cost.h>`

## Definition

The class `Edge_length_cost` is a model for the `GetCost` concept, which computes the collapse cost as the squared length of the edge.

Template Parameters

  ECM | is the type of surface mesh being simplified, and must be a model of the `EdgeCollapsableSurfaceMesh` concept.

Is Model Of:
  `GetCost`

## Creation

| Edge_length_cost ()
| Default constructor.

## Operations

template<typename Profile , typename T >
optional< typename Profile::FT > | operator() (Profile const &profile, T const &placement) const
| Returns the collapse cost as the squared distance between the points of the source and target vertices (that is, `profile.p0()` and `profile.p1()`. More...

## Member Function Documentation

template<typename ECM >
template<typename Profile , typename T >

optional<typename Profile::FT> CGAL::Surface_mesh_simplification::Edge_length_cost< ECM >::operator() | ( | Profile const & | profile,
|  | T const & | placement
| ) |  | const

Returns the collapse cost as the squared distance between the points of the source and target vertices (that is, `profile.p0()` and `profile.p1()`.

The `placement` argument is ignored.
