Three-point estimation is a method for assessing the time or resources needed to complete a task, based on three values:

• Optimistic estimate (O) — the minimum time in which the task can be completed under ideal conditions.
• Pessimistic estimate (P) — the maximum time that might be required, considering possible problems.
• Most likely estimate (M) — the most realistic time to complete the task.

Based on these three estimates, the expected time (E) is calculated using the formula:

E = (O + 4M + P) / 6

This approach helps to account for uncertainty and risks in planning, making estimates more accurate and justified. It is often used in project management to create schedules and estimate deadlines.
