I'm trying to figure out what type of math is used when machining/programming. If it could be narrowed down to a specific subject, that would be good. So I can get a book and self-teach on that subject. Besides basic math, I've heard trigonometry. But them I'm reading that you may need to know other things before getting to trigonometry. I've really only got basic math down at this point. I'm trying to G-code a 2 axis lathe and can't do any radius/chamfer that isn't a 45. I also don't know how to single point thread, much less a NPT or BSP. (Just confused on what little I know about it, something about angle of the threading tool and how that works when threading)
I looked for a off topic sub-forum and didn't see one. Sorry for being blind, if there is.
