Keyboard
You use a pencil to write on a paper. In the same way, you need a keyboard to type
on a computer screen.
A keyboard has small buttons on it, called keys. You can type text on the computer
by pressing these keys.
Keys on the Keyboard
A standard keyboard consists of 101 to 104 keys. These keys are divided into three
categories:
Alphabet keys (A–Z or a–z)
Number keys (1, 2, 3, ..., 9 and 0 [zero])
Special keys (Enter key, Spacebar key, Backspace key, etc.)
Number keys

Imagine, you got a magical keyboard. When you will type the name of a
place and press Enter key, it will take you there. You can use it only once.
