| --------- | ------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `x`       | Number | the x-coordinate. this could be longitude or screen pixels, or any other sort of unit. |
| `y`       | Number | the y-coordinate. this could be latitude or screen pixels, or any other sort of unit.  |


### Example

```js
var point = new Point(-77, 38);
```


### `clone`

Clone this point, returning a new point that can be modified
without affecting the old one.


**Returns** `Point`, the clone


### `add(p)`

Add this point's x & y coordinates to another point,
yielding a new point.

### Parameters

| parameter | type  | description     |
| --------- | ----- | --------------- |
| `p`       | Point | the other point |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `sub(p)`

Subtract this point's x & y coordinates to from point,
yielding a new point.

### Parameters

| parameter | type  | description     |
| --------- | ----- | --------------- |
| `p`       | Point | the other point |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `multByPoint(p)`

yielding a new point.

### Parameters

| parameter | type  | description     |
| --------- | ----- | --------------- |
| `p`       | Point | the other point |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `divByPoint(p)`

Divide this point's x & y coordinates by point,
yielding a new point.

### Parameters

| parameter | type  | description     |
| --------- | ----- | --------------- |
| `p`       | Point | the other point |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `mult(k)`

Multiply this point's x & y coordinates by a factor,
yielding a new point.

### Parameters

| parameter | type  | description |
| --------- | ----- | ----------- |
| `k`       | Point | factor      |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `div(k)`

Divide this point's x & y coordinates by a factor,
yielding a new point.

### Parameters

| parameter | type  | description |
| --------- | ----- | ----------- |
| `k`       | Point | factor      |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `rotate(a)`

Rotate this point around the 0, 0 origin by an angle a,
given in radians

### Parameters

| parameter | type   | description                        |
| --------- | ------ | ---------------------------------- |
| `a`       | Number | angle to rotate around, in radians |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `rotateAround(a, p)`

Rotate this point around p point by an angle a,
given in radians

### Parameters

| parameter | type   | description                        |
| --------- | ------ | ---------------------------------- |
| `a`       | Number | angle to rotate around, in radians |
| `p`       | Point  | Point to rotate around             |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `matMult(m)`

Multiply this point by a 4x1 transformation matrix

### Parameters

| parameter | type              | description           |
| --------- | ----------------- | --------------------- |
| `m`       | Array\.\<Number\> | transformation matrix |



**Returns** `Point`, output point


### `unit`

Calculate this point but as a unit vector from 0, 0, meaning
that the distance from the resulting point to the 0, 0
coordinate will be equal to 1 and the angle from the resulting
point to the 0, 0 coordinate will be the same as before.


**Returns** `Point`, unit vector point


### `perp`

Compute a perpendicular point, where the new y coordinate
is the old x coordinate and the new x coordinate is the old y
coordinate multiplied by -1


**Returns** `Point`, perpendicular point


### `round`
