[BlindMath] Purpose of LaTex

[Noble,Stephen L.]

For a general introduction to the subject of blind students using LaTeX, there is a nice overview article that was published a few years back in the Future Reflections magazine which can be found on the NFB website at the following link.

"LaTeX: What Is It and Why Do We Need It?"

Hello, everyone.
I am a new member of Blindmath, and I love all of the discussions. I
am a math major and going into precalculus in the fall. I have heard
of LaTex, but I still do not get the purpose of using it. Could a
student, who is totally blind, benefit from this program? What is its'
purpose? I am using Windows 10 with JAWS 2018. Thank you very much.
