## Description
|
||||
|
||||
<section id='description'>
|
||||
|
||||
A k-d tree (short for <i>k</i>-dimensional tree) is a space-partitioning data structure for organizing points in a k-dimensional space.
|
||||
k-d trees are a useful data structure for several applications, such as searches involving a multidimensional search key (e.g. range searches and nearest neighbor searches).
|
||||
k-d trees are a special case of binary space partitioning trees. k-d trees are not suitable, however, for efficiently finding the nearest neighbor in high dimensional spaces. As a general rule, if the dimensionality is <i>k</i>, the number of points in the data, <i>N</i>, should be <i>N</i> ≫ 2<sup><i>k</i></sup>.
|
||||
Otherwise, when k-d trees are used with high-dimensional data, most of the points in the tree will be evaluated and the efficiency is no better than exhaustive search, and other methods such as approximate nearest-neighbor are used instead.

## Instructions
|
||||
|
||||
<section id='instructions'>
|
||||
|
||||
Write a function to perform a nearest neighbour search using k-d tree. The function takes two parameters: an array of k-dimensional points, and a single k-dimensional point whose nearest neighbour should be returned by the function. A k-dimensional point will be given as an array of k elements.
