A taxicabverse is a universe in which the distance between two points is equal to (a normal verse has a distance between points determined by the pythagorean theorem, ). The simplest useful taxicabverse is a 2-taxicab verse, where the distance between two points equals the x-distance plus the y-distance. For example, the points (0,0) and (3,4) have a distance of 7 in a 2-taxicabverse, because 3+4 = 7.
