    only if you are climb milling.
    you can use either g02 or g03, but 1 way will be conventional mill.

    Before you can had code for a 5" sq you first need to know your starting position, how the material is going to be oriented on the machine and the bit size. To just randomly write code is fun......but it ain't gonna work!

    Material is 6X6"
    Lower left hand corner is x0y0. Set the bit .250" over the material thickness.

    using a .5" bit
    absolute G90
    G00X.250Y.250
    G01Z-.........WHATEVER YOU NEED
    G01Y5.75
    G01X5.75
    G01Y.250
    G01X.250
    G00Z0.00
    G00X0.00Y0.00

    This will leave nothing outside the cut of the bit for clamping but it is for example anyway. This is for a clockwise cut which will be a climb cut on the part.
