Ottawa Canada Dear Nikki:
Computer Braille, sometimes called grade Zero, is a one-for-one representation of the text in Braille. It is like Grade One Braille but does not use the Composition Signs for Capitals, Italics Letters or Numbers. It represents numbers as lower letters with no number sign preceding them, the same way Nemeth does, at least in the T-Braille implementation of Computer Braille. In the B. A. U. K. implementation of Computer Braille, numbers are represented by letters with a dot 6 added. These two implementations of Computer Braille are separate and distinct from the Provisional Computer Braille Code as published by B. A. N. A. The Provisional Computer Braille Code has two-cell signs for Grade Switch, Capitalization begin/end, Italics, Bold and Highlighted in addition to a representation of the various letters, numbers, punctuation and other symbols used in computer work. Hope this explains the matter. Brian -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Free Edition.
