if created an object name x instead of point can it still pass thru OnMap(Point point), or must object name match?

Is Point point declaring variable? If so, is correct to say that point of type Point is the same as saying point of type coordinate? The created Type (Point) is actually a type coordinate?

Hello!

No, the variable name doesn't have to match. You can use any name you'd like.

is correct to say that point of type Point is the same as saying point of type coordinate?

Not quite. It is quite the opposite. You can declare it like this and it will work:

Point coordinate = new Point();

// but the following won't work since there's no Coordinate class (or object) declared so far.
Coordinate point = new Coordinate();

Hope it helped!
