[Blindmath] Learning R

[Zach]

The other thing I'd wonder about in your situation, and yes you can get this
service via human readers, but obtaining publications not in accessible
format. But I don't know. I'm in a field where a lot of publications are
still not completely accessible. Maybe more publications are made accessible
in statistics journals? 

If someone has experience with using Imfty software in the OCR of STEM
publications, could you write me off list? This is something I've been
meaning to investigate using for some years now.


Thanks,

Zac

Hi Mike,
Could you also tell me what other options there could be for doing
statistical annalysis with screen readers?
Thank you s much for your help and advice.
It is chalanging however as I have selected a field where I need to publish
journal articles with deep data annalysis, it is important that I pickup a
good software.


Regards,
Suman.
