pcl/io/pcd_io.h is the header that contains the definitions for PCD I/O
operations, and pcl/point_types.h contains definitions for several PointT type
structures (pcl::PointXYZ in our case).
The first file is the header that contains the definitions for PCD I/O
operations, and second one contains definitions for several point type
structures, including ``pcl::PointXYZ`` that we will use.

.. literalinclude:: sources/pcd_write/pcd_write.cpp

describes the templated PointCloud structure that we will create. The type of
each point is set to pcl::PointXYZ, which is:

.. code-block:: cpp

// \brief A point structure representing Euclidean xyz coordinates.
struct PointXYZ
{
float x;
float y;
float z;
};
each point is set to ``pcl::PointXYZ``, which is a structure that has ``x``,
``y``, and ``z`` fields.
