can be manipulated independently, usually to form a sharp transition between the two
segments:
Examples of corner points
Smooth point: A smooth point connects two curved lines to form a continuous curve. The
curve handles always rest on a straight line through the point, but they can be distanced
independently:
A smooth point
Symmetrical point: A symmetrical point connects two curved lines to form a continuous
curve. The result is similar to a smooth point, but the curve handles are always equidistant
from the point:
A symmetrical point
Curve handles: Curve handles extend from either side of a point and control a curve's shape:

Line segments: Line segments are straight or curved line sections positioned between two
points:
