\begin{definition}[Definition:Chebyshev Distance/General Definition]
Let $M_1 = \struct {A_1, d_1}, M_2 = \struct {A_2, d_2}, \ldots, M_n = \struct {A_n, d_n}$ be metric spaces.
Let $\ds \AA = \prod_{i \mathop = 1}^n A_i$ be the cartesian product of $A_1, A_2, \ldots, A_n$.
The '''Chebyshev distance''' on $\ds \AA = \prod_{i \mathop = 1}^n A_i$ is defined as:
:$\ds \map {d_\infty} {x, y} = \max_{i \mathop = 1}^n \set {\map {d_i} {x_i, y_i} }$
where $x = \tuple {x_1, x_2, \ldots, x_n}, y = \tuple {y_1, y_2, \ldots, y_n} \in \AA$.
