In CNC systems, editing is easier as compared to that of NC system because

  1. in CNC systems, the part programme is stored in computer accuracy

  2. in CNC systems, the part programme can be easily checked and corrected

  3. data tape in case of NC system cannot be reused, whereas disc in CNC systems can be reused

  4. all of the above
