Instances of this class represent places on the (x, y) coordinate plane.

The coordinate space for rectangles and points is considered to have increasing values downward and to the right from its origin making this the normal, computer graphics oriented notion of (x, y) coordinates rather than the strict mathematical one.

The hashCode() method in this class uses the values of the public fields to compute the hash value. When storing instances of the class in hashed collections, do not modify these fields after the object has been inserted.

Application code does not need to explicitly release the resources managed by each instance when those instances are no longer required, and thus no dispose() method is provided.
