What does a G01 code do?

G01 sets the CNC movement mode to straight line movement, otherwise known as linear interpolation. 

The G01 code is used to move the CNC axes (X, Y, & Z) around in a straight line around at a feed rate specified with the F command.

G01 is a modal command which means it will stay on until switched to another code in the same movement group of codes such as G00 – Rapid travel or G02 – Clockwise circular interpolation.
