What is a series of numbered instructions that control the machine's movements and functions to create a part?

A series of numbered instructions that control a machine's movements and functions to create a part is known as a CNC (Computer Numerical Control) program. This program consists of G-code and M-code commands that dictate the machine's actions, such as cutting, drilling, or milling. By following these precise instructions, the machine can accurately produce components to specified dimensions and tolerances.
