Python - Prevent randomly generated points from overlapping each other

Hi, I am new with python and I am still learning so my problem might be very trivial but I just cannot get the right solution for this problem.
So, I have randomly generated points inside a square. Each point has a radius. But the problem with generated points is that they are overlapping each other. How can I resolve this?
Thank you for your help in advance.

    points_d.append(rs.AddPoint(x,y,max(a,b)))
