packcircles: Simple algorithms for circle packing

Description

This package provides several algorithms to find non-overlapping arrangements of circles:

circleRepelLayout

Arranges circles within a bounding rectangle by pairwise repulsion.

circleProgressiveLayout

Arranges circles in an unbounded area by progressive placement. This is a very efficient algorithm that can handle large numbers of circles.

circleGraphLayout

Finds an arrangement of circles conforming to a graph specification.
