% ADDCIRCLE
%
% A circle generator for adding (drawing) weights into a Hough accumumator
% array.
%
% Usage:  h = addcircle(h, c, radius, weight)
% 
% Arguments:
%            h      - 2D accumulator array.
%            c      - [x,y] coords of centre of circle.
%            radius - radius of the circle
%            weight - optional weight of values to be added to the
%                     accumulator array (defaults to 1)
%
% Returns:   h - Updated accumulator array.
