Total circles area
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.
Given some partially overlapping circles on the plane, compute and show the total area covered by them, with four or six (or a little more) decimal digits of precision. The area covered by two or more disks needs to be counted only once.
One point of this Task is also to compare and discuss the relative merits of various solution strategies, their performance, precision and simplicity. This means keeping both slower and faster solutions for a language (like C) is welcome.
To allow a better comparison of the different implementations, solve the problem with this standard dataset, each line contains the x and y coordinates of the centers of the disks and their radii (11 disks are fully contained inside other disks):

EchoLisp
Circles included in circles are discarded, and the circles are sorted : largest radius first. The circles bounding box is computed and divided into nxn rectangular tiles of size ds = dx * dy . Surfaces of tiles which are entirely included in a circle are added. Remaining tiles are divided into four smaller tiles, and the process is repeated : recursive call of procedure S , until ds < s-precision. To optimize things, a first pass - procedure S0 - is performed, which assigns a list of candidates intersecting circles to each tile. This is quite effective, since the mean number of candidates circles for a given tile is 1.008 for n = 800.

Go
(more "based on" than a direct translation)
This is very memory inefficient and as written will not run on a 32 bit architecture (due mostly to the required size of the "unknown" Rectangle channel buffer to get even a few decimal places). It may be interesting anyway as an example of using channels with Go to split the work among several go routines (and processor cores).

Analytical Solution
Breaking down circles to non-intersecting arcs and assemble zero winding paths, then calculate their areas. Pro: precision doesn't depend on a step size, so no need to wait longer for a more precise result; Con: probably not numerically stable in marginal situations, which can be catastrophic.

Given a list of arcs, build sets of closed paths from them.
If one arc's end point is no more than 1e-4 from another's
start point, they are considered connected. Since these
start/end points resulted from intersecting circles earlier,
they *should* be exactly the same, but floating point
precision may cause small differences, hence the 1e-4 error
margin. When there are genuinely different intersections
closer than this margin, the method will backfire, badly.

This is how this solution works:
- Given a list of circles, give all of them the same winding. Say, imagine every circle turns clockwise.
- Find all the intersection points among all circles. Between each pair, there may be 0, 1 or 2 intersections. Ignore 0 and 1, we need only the 2 case.
- For each circle, sort its intersection points in clockwise order (keep in mind it's a cyclic list), and split it into arc segments between neighboring point pairs. Circles that don't cross other circles are treated as a single 360 degree arc.
- Imagine all circles are on a white piece of paper, and have their interiors inked black. We are only interested in the arcs separating black and white areas, so we get rid of the arcs that aren't so. These are the arcs that lie entirely within another circle. Because we've taken care of all intersections eariler, we only need to check if any point on an arc segment is in any other circle; if so, remove this arc. (The haskell code uses the middle point of an arc for this, but anything other than the two end points would do).
- The remaining arcs form one or more closed paths. Each path's area can be calculated, and the sum of them all is the area needed. Each path is done like the way mentioned on that stackexchange page cited somewhere. This works for holes, too. Suppose the circles form an area with a hole in it; you'd end up with two paths, where the outer one winds clockwise, and the inner one ccw. Use the same method to calculate the areas for both, and the outer one would have a positive area, the inner one negative. Just add them up.
There are a few concerns about this algorithm: firstly, it's fast only if there are few circles. Its complexity is maybe O(N^3) with N = number of circles, while normal scanline method is probably O(N * n) or less, with n = number of scanlines. Secondly, step 4 needs to be accurate; a small precision error there may cause an arc to remain or be removed by mistake, with disastrous consequences. Also, it's difficult to estimate the error in the final result. The scanline or Monte Carlo methods have errors mostly due to statistics, while this method's error is due to floating point precision loss, which is a very different can of worms.

toDisk[{x_, y_, r_}] := Disk[{x, y}, r];
RegionMeasure[RegionUnion[toDisk /@ data]]
Returns 21.5650370663759
If one assumes that the input data is exact (all omitted digits are zero) then the exact answer can be derived by changing the definition of toDisk in the above code to
toDisk[{x_, y_, r_}] := Disk[{Rationalize[x, 0], Rationalize[y, 0]}, Rationalize[r, 0]]
The first 100 digits of the decimal expansion of the result are 21.56503660385639951717662965041005741103435843377395022310218015982077828980273399575555145558778509 so the solution given in the problem statement is incorrect after the first 16 decimal places (if we assume no bugs in the parts of Mathematica used here).

2D Van der Corput sequence
Remembering that the Van der Corput sequence is used for Monte Carlo-like simulations. This example uses a Van der Corput sequence generator of base 2 for the first dimension, and base 3 for the second dimension of the 2D space which seems to cover evenly.
To aid in efficiency:
- Circles are uniquified,
- Sorted in descending order of size,
- Wholly obscured circles removed,
- And the square of the radius computed outside the main loops.

As mentioned on the talk page, this version does more with its 200K points than the rectangular grid implementation does with its 250K points, (and the C coded Monte Carlo method does with 100 million points).

Raku
(formerly Perl 6) This subdivides the outer rectangle repeatedly into subrectangles, and classifies them into wet, dry, or unknown. The knowns are summed to provide an inner bound and an outer bound, while the unknowns are further subdivided. The estimate is the average of the outer bound and the inner bound. Not the simplest algorithm, but converges fairly rapidly because it can treat large areas sparsely, saving the fine subdivisions for the circle boundaries. The number of unknown rectangles roughly doubles each pass, but the area of those unknowns is about half.

Here the "diff" is calculated by subtracting the known wet and dry areas from the total area, and the "error" is the difference between that and the sum of the areas of the unknown blocks, to give a rough idea of how much floating point roundoff error we've accumulated.

optimized
This REXX version elides any circle that is completely contained in another circle.
Also, another optimization is the sorting of the circles by (descending) radii,
this reduces the computation time (for overlapping circles) by around 25%.
This, with other optimizations, makes this 2nd REXX version about twice as fast as the 1st REXX version.
This version also has additional information displayed.
