You ask your instructor for a verbal description of the figure.  Or hire a 
reader. That is what a lot of blind persons do.

Okay, what is a simple programming for creating an IPO chart, that is 
accessible? Thanks. I'll try and give it a shot. It'll be hard though 
because my text book does not describe the figures in plain text. For 
example, they'll say,  figure 1.13 shows what the following program psuedo 
code will look like. Then of course the figure is not described. So how can 
I work with that?
Thanks.
Jes
