What is a Keyboard?

The keyboard is an important part of a computer.
It resembles a piano and is mainly used for typing letters and numbers on a computer.
Just as we use pens and pencils to write on paper, we use a keyboard to write on a computer screen.

Keyboard Structure:

The keyboard consists of many buttons called keys.
Each key has a specific function.
Most keyboards have 104 keys.
The most commonly used keyboard layout is called the QWERTY keyboard, named after the first six letters on the top row.
The QWERTY layout was designed by Christopher Latham Sholes to enable faster typing with fewer mistakes.

Types of Keys:

alphabet keys: 26 keys representing English letters (A to Z), used for typing letters, words, and sentences.
number keys: Keys with numbers 0 to 9.
- There are two sets of number keys: one above the alphabet keys and one on the right side (numeric keypad).
arrow keys: Also known as cursor control keys.
- Used to move the cursor (the blinking line on the screen) left, right, up, or down.
- arrow keys can also be used to play games on the computer.

Cursor:

The cursor is a small blinking line on the computer screen.
It shows where the next letter or number will appear when typed.
arrow keys help move the cursor in different directions.

Methodology / Instructions:

To type on a computer, press the keys on the keyboard.
Use alphabet keys to type letters.
Use number keys to type numbers.
Use arrow keys to move the cursor around the screen.
Observe the cursor’s movement corresponding to the arrow key pressed:

- Right arrow → cursor moves right
- Up arrow → cursor moves up
- Down arrow → cursor moves down
