I just found out that this has less (or nothing, mind you) to do with cnc code and more to do with an improper redundant zero "rule".
A friend at Harvard said that using the order of operations would get you 7. Dropping the redundant 0 gives you 5. He also mentioned a whole lot of stuff about...
Haha, well it's not rewriting math it's just turning into code that a post-processor can understand.
In the early days on NC machines a single line of text was punched into a ticker-tape which would then be optically processed by the machine. The roots of these unique codes could well be in...
I joined the forum simply because of this question.
I had originally said the answer was 5.
I work in CNC Machining and lines of code and be interpreted differently by different machine drivers.
A very basic yet extreme example with something like 6-0+5 could be interpreted by the computer...
