Re: [Blind-Computing] defragging
thanks so much for the explaination On 1/6/13, JM Casey crystallo...@ca.inter.net wrote: The concept of defragmenting involves reorganising the files on your drive so they take up contiguous spaces on the disk. This should lead to faster access, since the operating system won't have to search all over the disk for pieces of files that should be stored sequentially, and makes it less likely that you won't be able to access programmes or data due to disparate sectors on the disk going bad or whatever. Apparently this doesn't apply to the new solid state drives, which have a completely differentt storage method. - Original Message - From: Shreyas N Reddy n.shreyas.re...@gmail.com To: blind-computing@jaws-users.com Sent: Saturday, January 05, 2013 9:52 PM Subject: Re: [Blind-Computing] defragging Hi I am sorry as can any one please let me know what is defragment of hardrive?

Re: [Blind-Computing] regarding software for graphs tables
Hi leo I am very thankful to u for valuable suggestion u shared posted hear for me It was very informative Thanks once again On 8/4/12, Dr.Leo fhaxbo...@googlemail.com wrote: Hi Shreyas, Shreyas N Reddy wrote: hi all hope all r fine As I introduced previously that I Am Shreyas from country: India I have problems with graphs tables I don't know how to use the Excel but if there is any software which is only meant for blind users to access draw graphs/ tables, it would be very nice helpful for me I use these in economics business studies. So, that's the problem tables in accounts. Please help me members I look forward to get reply from u experts I am unaware of any such software specifically for the blind. I use MS Excel 2007 with a current Jaws version and it works smoothly so long as I don't use graphs. So I manage to analyze various kinds of data. Graphs are generally for the sighted. That said, you can create diagrams with Excel, too, without seeing them. However, I don't feel comfortable doing this alone. I rather try to get sighted help to check if my diagrams look meaningful. A far more powerful approach to tables and statistics are commercial packages such as SAS, SPSS, statistica etc. A blind colleague of mine works successfully with SAS, I think. Then tere is R, an open source statistics software system, but on Windows it is not accessible and has a relatively steep learning curv. I personally prefer the Python programming language with some scientific software on top such as numpy, scipy, pandas (for data analysis) and statsmodels (for sophisticated statistical analysis). iPython is a powerful environment to use all this. Diagrams can be drawn with matplotlib. All this is open source. But again, it might be difficult to use diagrams confidently without sighted help. And Python is a programming language that you'd have to learn, although I think your time would be extremely well spent. But before dropping Excel, think of the benefits it provides you simply by using the same software as your class mates.
