  2. G-code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code

    G-code (abbreviation for geometric code; also called RS-274 [citation needed]) is the most widely used computer numerical control (CNC) and 3D printing programming language. It is used mainly in computer-aided manufacturing to control automated machine tools , as well as for 3D-printer slicer applications .

  3. Cutter location - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutter_location

    A cutter location (CLData) refers to the position which a CNC milling machine has been instructed to hold a milling cutter by the instructions in the program (typically G-code). Each line of motion controlling G-code consists of two parts: the type of motion from the last cutter location to the next cutter location (e.g. "G01" means linear ...

    en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/page/mobile-html/G-code

    G-code instructions are provided to a machine controller (industrial computer) that tells the motors where to move, how fast to move, and what path to follow. The two most common situations are that, within a machine tool such as a lathe or mill, a cutting tool is moved according to these instructions through a toolpath cutting away material to leave only the finished workpiece and/or an ...

  5. Singleton pattern - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Singleton_pattern

    The pattern is useful when exactly one object is needed to coordinate actions across a system. More specifically, the singleton pattern allows classes to: [2] Ensure they only have one instance; Provide easy access to that instance; Control their instantiation (for example, hiding the constructors of a class)

    for each pixel (Px, Py) on the screen do x0:= scaled x coordinate of pixel (scaled to lie in the Mandelbrot X scale (-2.5, 1)) y0:= scaled y coordinate of pixel (scaled to lie in the Mandelbrot Y scale (-1, 1)) x:= 0.0 y:= 0.0 iteration:= 0 max_iteration:= 1000 // Here N = 2^8 is chosen as a reasonable bailout radius. while x*x + y*y ≤ (1 ...

  7. Talk:G-code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:G-code

    There is a pair of G codes to switch between "inch" and metric. All CNCs have some way to switch between the two systems. In general, G-codes are a simplistic progamming language. There are G code pairs to switch between not only inch and metric, but absolute and incremental coordinate designation. G codes are put into groups.

  8. Quadtree - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadtree

    For example, consider the result if we were to union a checkerboard (where every tile is a pixel) of size with its complement. The result is a giant black square which should be represented by a quadtree with just the root node (coloured black), but instead the algorithm produces a full 4-ary tree of depth k {\displaystyle k} .

  9. Computer programming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_programming

    Computer programming or coding is the composition of sequences of instructions, called programs, that computers can follow to perform tasks. [1] [2] It involves designing and implementing algorithms, step-by-step specifications of procedures, by writing code in one or more programming languages.
