The distance between an arc and the center of a circle that contains the arc
can be specified using the radius, R, of the circle instead of I, J, and K.
In this case, one arc is less than 180°, and the other is more than 180° are
considered. When an arc exceeding 180° is commanded, the radius must
be specified with a negative value. If Xp, Yp, and Zp are all omitted, if
the end point is located at the same position as the start point and when
R is used, an arc of 0° is programmed
