Matrix Categorizing

Matrix categorizing items contain a grid in which elements are in rows, and the categories are column headers. In braille, elements are numbered, and there are letters at the intersections of rows and columns to simplify responding with a braillewriter. Users enter a number for each element and a letter to indicate its category.

Matrix items are also accessible with audio and switches in the online format and can also be represented in paper-and-pencil and optical scan formats.
