Let M be any non-empty set Define \[d(x,y)=\begin{cases}0\text{ if }x=y\\1\text{ if }x\ne y\end{cases}\] This metric is called


A) Stanaard Metric

B) Discrete Metric

C) Absolute Metric

D) Bounded Metric

Correct Answer:
B) Discrete Metric

Description for Correct answer:
Let M be a set for \(x,y\in M\)

The metric \[d(x,y)=\begin{cases}0\text{ if }x=y\\1\text{ if }x\ne y\end{cases}\]

is called discrete metric on M.
