In this code golf challenge, you'll be computing the placement of circles of areas \$\pi, 2\pi, 3\pi, \dots\$ when greedily placed along integer points in a square spiral in such a way that no two overlap.
A square spiral is a sequence in \$\mathbb Z^2\$ that starts at \$(0,0)\$ and successively ...

Tried to check if it has hit oth...
