Here I present: “Arithmetic Braille’, Louis Braille’, Procedure for Writing Words, Music & Plainsong in Dots, 1829. CONTINUED.
INTRODUCTION.
In this blog post I am going explain the sixty-four (64) fonts of Braille’ writing. The table is at the BOTTOM of the page and has all sixty-four (64) Braille’ fonts.
The basic idea is a simply a CUBE that represents numerals’: 01234567890 which are equated to letters ABCDEFGHIJ. By turning the orientation of the CUBE all arithmetic operations can be done. The next idea is to add dots to the #3 (apostrophe), #3 (hyphen), and #6 (capital) Braille’ cell positions to COMPLETE the table of alphabetical fonts in the BOTTOM table. The entire table now requires only two (2) SHIFTS: “downward” and “rightward” (only #1).
The sighted beginner can produce the thirteen (13) columns & five (5) rows of the sixty-four (64) Braille’ fonts. Starting with pencil and writing paper, any sighted persons can COPY the Braille’ table at the BOTTOM of the blog post.
