Write a javascript function that calculates euclidean distance between two coordinates of any dimension.

For example, the Euclidean distance between (0, 1) and (3, 4) is:

sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2) = sqrt(9 + 0) = 3

Here's a possible implementation in JavaScript:

function euclideanDistance(coord1, coord2) {
  if (coord1.length !== coord2.length) {
    throw new Error('Coordinates have different dimensions');
  }
  
  const diff = coord2.map((val, index) => val - coord1[index]);
  const squareSum = diff.reduce((sum, val) => sum + val * val, 0);
  return Math.sqrt(squareSum);
}

This function takes two arrays coord1 and coord2, representing the two coordinates to compute the distance from. It first checks that both coordinates have the same number of dimensions by comparing their lengths. Then it computes the difference between the corresponding values of each coordinate
