13.1 13.1 Axis functions (AXNAME, AX, SPI, AXTOSPI, ISAXIS, AXSTRING)
Function
AXNAME is used, for example, to create generally applicable cycles when the name of the
axes are not known (see also the "String functions" section).
SPI is used, for example, when axis functions are used for a spindle, e.g. the synchronized
spindle.
ISAXIS is used in universal cycles in order to ensure that a specific geometry axis exists and
thus that any following $P_AXNX call is not aborted with an error message.
Programming

or

or
