Solve the following python programming problem given the following code:
@ experimental (as_of = '0.4.0') 
def distance(self, other, metric = None) : 
    "Compute the distance to another sequence.

        Parameters
        ----------
        other : str, Sequence, or 1D np.ndarray (np.uint8 or '\\|S1')
            Sequence to compute the distance to. If `other` is a ``Sequence``
            object, it must be the same type as this sequence. Other input
            types will be converted into a ``Sequence`` object of the same type
            as this sequence.
        metric : function, optional
            Function used to compute the distance between this sequence and
            `other`. If ``None`` (the default), Hamming distance will be used
            (:func:`skbio.sequence.distance.hamming`). `metric` should take two
            ``skbio.Sequence`` objects and return a ``float``. The sequence
            objects passed to `metric` will be the same type as this sequence.
            See :mod:`skbio.sequence.distance` for other predefined metrics
            that can be supplied via `metric`.

        Returns
        -------
        float
            Distance between this sequence and `other` as defined by `metric`.

        Raises
        ------
        TypeError
            If `other` is a ``Sequence`` object with a different type than this
            sequence.

        Examples
        --------
        >>> from skbio import Sequence
        >>> s = Sequence('GGUC')
        >>> t = Sequence('AGUC')

        Compute Hamming distance (the default metric):

        >>> s.distance(t)
        0.25

        Use a custom metric:

        >>> def custom_metric(s1, s2): return 0.42
        >>> s.distance(t, custom_metric)
        0.42

    other = self._munge_to_self_type (other, 'distance') 
    if (metric is None) : 
        metric = skbio.sequence.distance.hamming 
return float (metric (metric, other))
