Description
Problem Statement
Users cannot plot points on the graph today, only expressions.
Proposal
Add support for plotting coordinate pairs as points (e.g., P1 = (3,5))
Goals
Users can plot (x,y) coordinate pairs.
Low-Fidelity Concept

Requested Assignment
I'm just suggesting this idea. I don't want to implement it.
Contributor guide
First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start by locating the calculator's graphing implementation and determine how expressions are represented; done means coordinate-pair expressions such as P1 = (3,5) appear as plotted points with coverage for that behavior.
