All the circles
Showing the path edge from split-circles

[[http://timb.net/images/RC/Total-circles-area/TCA-all-circles.png All the circles]] [[http://timb.net/images/RC/Total-circles-area/TCA-split-circles.png Showing the path edge from split-circles]]

Below are an analytical solution in TCA-analytical.rkt, and a Monte-carlo solution in TCA-monte-carlo.rkt. Common code (notably types) is in TCA-types.rkt, and TCA-task.rkt (we don't need to list the circle coordinates more than once).

In order to get my head around the algorithm, I have also thrown together a TCA-draw.rkt which (if I can get RC to let me upload piccies) produces the attached images (otherwise you'll have to go to timb.net for them).

===TCA-types.rkt=== This solution (with the exception of TCA-draw.rkt) is in ''typed/racket''. This file defines the types, and geometrical arithmetic. In fact it encroaches on the analytical solution's magic -- but it's not so easy to separate concerns here.

===TCA-monte-carlo.rkt===

  • If deeper is ≤ 0, then this does a plain old Monte Carlo approximation.
  • If deeper > 0, then the sample space is divided into 4 (2x2), and circles that cannot possibly affect each subsample are discarded. This allows for more focussed "inside?" testing.

Nothing more sophisticated is attempted. That would be verging on ''analytical''.

#|
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.
