                                     Aryan. Now tell me, are you able to
                                     see any symbols on the screen when
                                     you press Enter?


                 When you press keys like Enter, Tab, and Spacebar, the characters generated

                 by these keys are known as non-printing characters.
                 To view these non-printing characters on the screen, you can toggle                    formatting
                 marks available on the Standard Toolbar or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + F10.
