```js
({ Point, points, Path, paths, part, macro }) => {
points.A = new Point(45, 60)
points.B = new Point(10, 30)
points.BCp2 = new Point(40, 20)

points.CCp1 = new Point(50, -30)
paths.A = new Path()
.move(points.A)
.line(points.B)
.curve(points.BCp2, points.CCp1, points.C)
paths.B = paths.A.translate(60, 30)
points.step1 = points.B.shift(0, 60)
