Problem of Apollonius
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
- Task
Implement a solution to the Problem of Apollonius (description on Wikipedia) which is the problem of finding the circle that is tangent to three specified circles (colored black in the diagram below to the right).
There is an algebraic solution which is pretty straightforward.
The solutions to the example in the code are shown in the diagram (below and to the right).
The red circle is "internally tangent" to all three black circles, and the green circle is "externally tangent" to all three black circles.

This solution follows the algebraic solution from Weisstein, Eric W. "Apollonius' Problem." From MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource. The Polynomials package is used to solve the quadratic equation for the radius (equation 1 in the reference) rather than hard coding it.
The enc
array passed to the apollonius
function, specifies which of the three defining circles are to be enclosed in the solution. For this task only the "internal" (enc=[]
) and "external" (enc=[1:3]
) are called for.

. Although a Circle class is defined, the solveApollonius function is defined in such a way that any three valued tuple or list could be used instead of c1, c2, and c3. The function calls near the end use instances of the Circle class, whereas the docstring shows how the same can be achieved using simple tuples. (And also serves as a simple doctest)

Raku
(formerly Perl 6) This program is written mostly in the "sigilless" style for several reasons. First, sigils tend to imply variables, and these sigilless symbols are not variables, but readonly bindings to values that are calculated only once, so leaving off the sigil emphasizes the fact that they are not variables, but merely named intermediate results.
Second, it looks more like the original mathematical formulas to do it this way.
Third, together with the use of Unicode, we are emphasizing the social contract between the writer and the reader, which has a clause in it that indicates code is read much more often than it is written, therefore the writer is obligated to undergo vicarious suffering on behalf of the reader to make things clear. If the reader doesn't understand, it's the writer's fault, in other words. Or in other other words, figure out how to type those Unicode characters, even if it's hard. And you should type them whenever it makes things clearer to the reader.
Finally, writing in an SSA style tends to help the optimizer.
