Distance list in relation to address points

[Gregws]

Question in relation to knowing that my sequenced address list is being followed.

The information lists I have access to and long/lat which is currently being input into graphhopper;

Longitude	Latitude	Address
174.817698160307	-41.2211847808856	3 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington
174.817793223927	-41.2210084429783	5 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington
174.818039507498	-41.2212552486597	4 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington
etc

From this input how do I know the distance between each point? How is it able to be access within order that I input them.

eg.

Longitude	Latitude	Address	Distance
174.817698160307	-41.2211847808856	3 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington	21m
174.817793223927	-41.2210084429783	5 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington	15m
174.818039507498	-41.2212552486597	4 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington	33m
etc

Then from that how do I go about processing the shortest distance using Graphhopper?
eg.

Longitude	Latitude	Address	Distance
174.818039507498	-41.2212552486597	4 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington	10m
174.817698160307	-41.2211847808856	3 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington	21m
174.817793223927	-41.2210084429783	5 Padnell Crescent Paparangi, Wellington	10m
etc

I’m currently using the following to get distance

InstructionList il = path.getInstructions();
// iterate over every turn instruction
for(Instruction instruction : il) {
System.out.println(instruction.getDistance() + " Meters");
}

Should I be using Matrix API?
Matrix API

// Hint: create this thread safe instance only once in your application to allow the underlying library to cache the costly initial https handshake
GraphHopperMatrixWeb matrixClient = new GraphHopperMatrixWeb();
matrixClient.setKey(“[YOUR_KEY]”);

GHMRequest ghmRequest = new GHMRequest();
ghmRequest.addOutArray(“distances”);
ghmRequest.addOutArray(“times”);
ghmRequest.setVehicle(“car”);

// init points for a symmetric matrix
List allPoints = …;
ghmRequest.addAllPoints(allPoints);

// or init e.g. a one-to-many matrix:
ghmRequest.addFromPoint(from);
for(GHPoint to : toList) {
ghmRequest.addToPoint(to);
}

MatrixResponse response = matrixClient.route(ghmRequest);
GHMResponse singleRsp = response.get(fromIndex, toIndex);
singleRsp.getDistance();
