title: Needed tutorial on FANUC GCODE
body: <p>G-code is a language for controlling CNC machines (lathes, mills).</p>
  
  <p>I have a university assignment that I need conceptual help with. The part of the job that I am having problems with is writing two short programs in G-code (Fanuc corporation dialect). I have a short list of keywords and an example program, but that doesn't seem to be enough to to learn the language.</p>
  
  <p>From my search of the net, I found that the various dialects of G-code are not compatible. However, I found no one tutorial on this specific one. </p>
  
  <p>Also, automatically generating code for the given problems doesn't seem to be an option, since I suspect I will be asked to explain the inner workings of the programs, when presenting them. Furthermore, teachers at my university seem to insist very strongly on doing things Their way, so ... I guess I'll just have to learn the damn thing. </p>
  
  <p>Q: Where can I find a concise (I want to spend no more than 2-3 days on the whole thing) tutorial for the Fanuc dialect of G-code?</p>
