[BlindRUG] Taking a Statistics Course for the First Time

[Liz Hare]

Hi, 
If you are using RStudio Server, I would guess that the contents of the table are not accessible to the screen reader.

It sounds like you’re using windows, and I think R users i’ve had luck using VSCode. I haven’t tried it myself because I’m using a Mac and it doesn’t work well there.

Other people on this list right there scripts in the text editor of their choice and submit them at the command line. I think this works well for some people, but I prefer to work interactively.

Hope this helps,

Liz

As noted earlier in the list (because I did my best to figure out if my question was answered), R Studio isn't the most accessible. I'm going to assume that this is also referring to R Studio Server Pro, although from my experience I have been able to use the shortcut (I think like Alt + shift + 2) to get to the console output. My main issue currently is reading imported data efficiently. When I attempted to use JAWS or NVDA with Chrome, a table with sort by headers showed up, but there didn't appear to be any data in the actual table, and the table with that data didn't  exist. I appologize if I missed anything that would have answered my questions.
