Read The Text and Answer The Questions

Louis Braille, a Frenchman who lost his sight at a young age, invented a tactile writing system for the blind using raised dots in 1829. Known as Braille, it uses a cell of up to six raised dots that can represent letters, numbers, and punctuation through different patterns. Braille allowed blind people to read independently and pursue opportunities that were previously unavailable to them, such as education. It remains an important system that allows the blind to read printed materials through touch.
