Does the calculator on the Apex support UEB?
The United States is the only country which hasn't adopted UEB for math, but
since Nemeth is not suposed to be used in grade 2 braille, I see no reason
why UEB couldn't be used instead.
When the U.S. adopted UEB, I started to learn it. I don't use higher math,
and I've forgotten whatever Nemeth signs I used to know when I took Algebra
and Geometry back in the late 60's.
I didn't use UEB when I had my Apex, so I'm curious about something. The
calculator uses the star symbol for multiplication and the slash sign for
division. When you write a problem like 2*2=4 and you paste the whole
calculation into a grade 2 file and you are using UEB as your braille code,
does the multiplication sign appear as a UEB star or does it appear like the
UEB multiplication sign, which is dots 5-236 a two-cell sign? Will the
division sign appear as dots 34 or will it appear as dots 456-34 when you
paste a calculation like 2/2=1 in a grade 2 document?

Go to options, braille, and set your preferred braille code to UEB. Now,
whenever you’d type grade 2 normally (BRF or KWB files, for instance), you
can use UEB.

People seem think that UEB can replace nemeth. So how exactly do I use it
for now? How do I use it? How do I make a UEB file?
