[BlindMath] College math questions

[Akashdeep Bansal]

Hi Carios,

I will recommend you to try out MathType and MathPlayer. MathType will help
you in converting LaTeX equations into the visual format in MS word
document. MathPlayer with NVDA will help you in reading that equation in
audio.

For your personal work, I will recommend you to use ASCII convention for
writing the mathematical equations.

Hope this will help you!

Best
Akashdeep
