swift 3 func distance(from location: CLLocation) -> CLLocationDistance Description Returns the distance (measured in meters) from the receiver’s location to the specified location. This method measures the distance between the two locations by tracing a line between them that follows the curvature of the Earth. The resulting arc is a smooth curve and does not take into account specific altitude changes between the two locations. Parameters
location The other location. Returns The distance (in meters) between the two locations. SDKs iOS 3.2+, macOS 10.6+, tvOS 9.0+, watchOS 2.0+ Declared In Core Location More Method Reference

e.g.

let distance = location.distance(from: CLLocation(latitude: 
CLLocationDegrees(oldLocationLat), longitude: 
CLLocationDegrees(oldLocationLng)))

swift 3 

func distance(from location: CLLocation) -> CLLocationDistance Description

Returns the distance (measured in meters)

e.g. 

locations: [CLLocation]

let location: CLLocation = locations.last!

let distance = location.distance(from: CLLocation(latitude: CLLocationDegrees(oldLocationLat), longitude: CLLocationDegrees(oldLocationLng)))
