[Blindmath] Way to keep mathematics and probability notes

[John Gardner]

Hi, if you don't read braille, then LEAN Math is your best solution today.
It is still in beta test, but the current release seems to be pretty robuts.
I expect it will be ready for commercial release before end of 2013.

If you want to join the beta group, let me know.  You will need a Windows
computer, MS Word, and MathType, and I promise you that you will find LEAN
to be easy and intuitive way to read and write mathType equations in Word.

So if your teachers are using MS Word, you can read their files.  You've
already learned that you can read LaTeX files too, but they are a lot
clumsier to read and write.

hello friends,
thank you very much for your replies.
here the first thing I've to say is that I don't know braille
reading. the 2nd possible way is using latex.but I don't have any idea
about that solution. my friends are really helpful for me. so they can
make lecture notes in that application. so please guide me step by
step to how to use it and how to instruct my friends for that. what
all are the things that I have to make them noticed .
waiting for your helpful response.
