Our work is based on making a User Interface for CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines manufactured by HAAS. The machine uses a programming language called G-Code, which for the ordinary lathe-operator is difficult to learn.

This paper is about the hoplite army and the men in it who fought for their family and polis. I wanted to write this paper because I think that we get too little information about the ordinary men who fight in wars.
