## Definition

Refines
  `AdaptableUnaryFunction`

See also
  `CGAL::Point_3<Kernel>`

## Operations
A model of this concept must provide:
Kernel::Point_3 | operator() (const CGAL::Origin &CGAL::ORIGIN)
| introduces a point with Cartesian coordinates \( (0,0,0)\).
Kernel::Point_3 | operator() (const Kernel::Point_3 &p)
| returns `p`.
Kernel::Point_3 | operator() (const Kernel::Weighted_point_3 &wp)
| extracts the bare point from the weighted point.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ operator()()

Kernel::Point_3 Kernel::ConstructPoint_3::operator() | ( | const Kernel::Point_3 & | p | ) |

returns `p`.

Note
  It is advised to return a const reference to `p` to avoid useless copies.
  This peculiar requirement is necessary because some CGAL structures such as triangulations internally manipulate points whose type might be `Point_3` or `Weighted_point_3`.
