Besides the above, there are other special cases: <code>[(0, 0), 1], [(0, 0), 2], [(0, 0), 3]</code> has no solution; <code>[(0, 1), 1], [(0, 2), 2], [(0, 3), 3]</code> has infinitely many solutions, to name just two. Someone once said, "programming is all about special cases." Unfortunately, for Problem of Apollonius, there seem to be nothing ''but'' special cases. --[[User:Ledrug|Ledrug]]
 
:For what it's worth: the J implementation treats all these degenerate cases as having no solutions. --[[User:Rdm|Rdm]] 20:11, 15 September 2011 (UTC)
