+Collision detection algorithms for 2D geometric shapes.
+
+Collision detection is a fundamental concept in computational geometry, physics
+simulations, and game development. It determines whether two or more geometric
+objects intersect or overlap in space.
+
+This module implements several common 2D collision detection algorithms:
+- Axis-Aligned Bounding Box (AABB) collision detection
+- Circle-circle collision detection
+- Circle-AABB collision detection
+- Point-in-rectangle detection
+- Point-in-circle detection
