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.
