Hadoop is best open source software library for working with large datasets. KNIME is a free and open source platform for blending tools and data types Excel is easy to use for non-technical users.

Are you wanting the notebook functionality? As if not any ide you know will be fine.

Notebooks are handy for easy displaying of results and mixing code and notes. Both can be difficult if you have no sight.

I wrote a python module to convert simple plots to audio for this exact reason

ok thanks, currently I am using VS Code for notebook functionality. and it works fine with JAWS, if you have anything to help me please provide it will ease my job.

My module is Mac or linux only at the minute. Could make it work perhaps if you have espeak on windows
YashSonkiya [OP] 1 points 3y ago

RStudio for the win.
Once you get R under your belt you’ll be able to drive Python, Matlab, SQL, Julia etc.
i’m a Ds enthusiast.

does it works with JAWS?
Type_ya_name_here 1 points 3y ago
I think so, i mostly use ZoomText, it’s speech function is pretty good.
YashSonkiya [OP] 1 points 3y ago
which version of R studio are you currently using?
Type_ya_name_here 1 points 3y ago
The most up to date one. I forget the version number.
YashSonkiya [OP] 1 points 3y ago
thank you so much. today i tried Jupyter Notebook with JAWS it did not work looking forward to check R studio

I dig R partially because of how you can change the background and text colour.
Is there a special area of Ds that turns you on ?

Excel is Ok, how are you going to generate a million random data points in Excel (for example) or download 1000 tweets about a topic you want to know more about wirh Excel ? Hint - you can’t.
