This file relies on the definition of Point in point.cs.

It sounds like you did not include point.cs along with this one when you compiled. Notice in the video, the compile command uses the wildcard "*.cs" which includes all the individual source files in the project.

Thank you Steven for the help. I forgot to save the file Point.cs. Now it worked well.
