findSuperElipseRadius: superElipseRadius
In robiRagan/voteR: Spatial Voting Models in R

Returns the distance between the center of a super elipse and a point on the elipse. The distance is mesured in the "order" of the superelipse. This order is the same as the minkowski order for distance.

1	findSuperElipseRadius(idealPoint, altPoint, orderScalar, salienceVector)

`idealPoint`	An ideal point for a voter.
`altPoint`	An alternative in the choice set.
`orderScalar`	Order for the voter's distance metric. 1 is the Manhattan Distance, 2 is the Cartesian Distance and 100000 is the Chebechev Distance. You can choose any integer inbetween.
`salienceVector`	The salience the voter has for each issue dimension. The element that coresponds to the least salient matrix is a 1 and all the other dimensions have their salience measured relative to that dimension.
