We use number keys to type numbers. They are also called
numeric keys. There are ten number keys on the keyboard.
The numeric keys are present at two different locations on
the keyboard. One set of numeric keys are located above
the alphabet keys. The other set of numeric keys are located
at the right side of the keyboard.
