You need to go to the options menu and set your keyboard input grade to computer braille to do math symbols. In computer braille there are math symbols instead of contractions. For example the ing contraction when typed out in computer braille is a plus sign.

Subject: [Braillenote] Maths Braille Signs In Grade 2?

Hi listers.  When one is using grade 2 Braille on the BN and
wants to use such signs as plus and equals, does one have to
revert to grade 0 Braille or another code? When I try to use dots
5-6 and dots 2-3-5 for plus sign, it comes out as ;! (semi-colon
exclamation mark).  Since I am trying to write up a budget on my
BN and present it to a financial counsellor, I want my
calculations to look comprehensible.

Any advice, either on or off list,  would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Michele
