[Blindmath] java

[Steve Jacobson]

Richard,

It would be best if you would raise this question on the NFBCS list as I know there are some JAVA programmers 
there.  There are people here who can answer your question as well, but we try to stick to math on this list.  In 
addition, the answer to your question is not a simple one.  Some JAVA development tools are accessible, but the 
results of running a JAVA program are often not.  There are ways to make the output accessible, but it is unlikely 
that approach will be taught in your course.  It still should be possible to take the course, although you might 
need to work with a reader for some of the class work.  For more specifics, though, please subscribe to the NFB in 
Computer Science list at

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson

anyone tell me if java is accessable? And if so is there anything you can suggest that may help get me started?
