"""Exports a type representing 2- and 3-dimensional points.

These points inherit from tuples, so you can do anything
you could otherwise do with tuples (notably, tuple unpacking)

Usage::

    origin = Point()
    pt = Point(4, 1)
    x = origin.x  # => x = 0
    y = pt.y      # => y = 1

    origin3 = Point3()
    pt = Point3(3, 4, 5)
    x, y, z = pt
