Different strokes for different folks.
When I was first learning g-code, Smid was my go-to reference source. Explained all the stuff that the poorly-photocopied book of notes at the local tech college used to teach with. Other students emerged without a good understanding of subroutines, variables, etc, all of which I only got from Smid. I could write 20 lines of code that did what other students did with 200 lines.
We were using a Haas, but that still meant 90% of the Smid book applied. Now I am using a Tormach. Again, it is a great reference source.
