Hello everyone!  
I am trying my hand at using Python3 within Dynamo.  
I tried to create a point using the DesignScriptReference in .NET but failed.  
The cause seems to be that there is no ByCoordinate method in the Point class.  
Can anyone help me with a solution? 💦.

test = IN[0]

result = Point.Bycoordinates(0,0,0)

# Assign your output to the OUT variable.

OUT = result

you made a typo in ByCoordinates.

```auto

clr.AddReference('AcMgd')
clr.AddReference('AcCoreMgd')
clr.AddReference('AcDbMgd')
clr.AddReference('AecBaseMgd')
clr.AddReference('AecPropDataMgd')
clr.AddReference('AeccDbMgd')

dataEnteringNode = IN

adoc = Application.DocumentManager.MdiActiveDocument
editor = adoc.Editor

test = IN[0]

result = DSGeom.Point.ByCoordinates(0,0,0)

OUT= result

```

It was an elementary mistake!  
Thank you very much!
