This is a special purpose calculator which computes properties of intersecting circles.
When the Widget is started, it displays a window with five fields.
Enter data into the four green fields, then press the RETURN or ENTER key.
Enter the x coordinates of the circles. Both centres are assumed to lie on the x-axis.
The Widget computes the status and the length of the chord of intersection.
outside - the circles do not overlap or touch each other
touching1 - the circles do not overlap but the boundaries do touch at one point
intersecting - the circles overlap and have two points of intersection
touching2 - the circles overlap and the boundaries touch at one point
inside - the circles overlap but do not touch
