The challenge
We have been searching for all the neighboring points in a Cartesian coordinate system. As we know each point in a coordinate system has eight neighboring points when we search it by range equal to 1, but now we will change the range by the third argument of our function (range is always greater than zero). For example, if range = 2, count of neighboring points = 24. In this challenge, a grid step is the same (= 1).
It is necessary to write a function that returns an array of unique distances between the given point and all neighboring points. You can round up the distance to 10 decimal places (as shown in the example). Distances inside the list don’t have to be sorted (any order is valid).
Examples:

CartesianNeighborsDistance(3, 2, 1) -> {1.4142135624, 1.0}
CartesianNeighborsDistance(0, 0, 2) -> {1.0, 1.4142135624, 2.0, 2.2360679775, 2.8284271247}
