Calculating resultant forces and moments is a fundamental skill for mechanical engineers. This challenge will help you automate these calculations using Python. You will use your knowledge of **vector addition** and **moments** to process a list of forces, each defined by its magnitude, direction, and point of application, and compute both the overall (`resultant`) force and the net moment about a given origin point.
