the object's displacement.
Bohr
Out of all possible paths that light might take, to get from one point to another, it takes the path that requires the shortest time.

This is known as routing.

A path is a route or track that provides direction or guides movement from one point to another. It can be physical, such as a trail or road, or abstract, such as a progression of steps or decisions toward a goal.
An euler path is when you start and one point and end at another in one sweep wirthout lifting you pen or pencil from the paper. An euler circuit is simiar to an euler path exept you must start and end in the same place you started.

The length of the path followed during motion is the total distance covered by an object moving from one point to another. It can be calculated by summing up the distances between consecutive points along the path.
Explain the path of one type of rock changing into another. Your path should include at least one intermediate form of rock
Light will almost always travel from one place to another along a path that takes the least amount of time. This does not imply that it will take the path involves the least distance all the time.
Bohr
When measuring one point to another point you are measuring distance.
