A keyboard is an input device used to type text, numbers, and symbols into a computer, phone, or other electronic device. It's a fundamental part of human-computer interaction, allowing users to communicate with devices and create digital content.
A standard keyboard typically consists of:
1. Alphanumeric keys (letters and numbers)
2. Punctuation keys (symbols like !, @, #, etc.)
3. Function keys (F1-F12, often used for shortcuts)
4. Navigation keys (arrows, Home, End, etc.)
5. Modifier keys (Shift, Ctrl, Alt, etc., used for keyboard shortcuts)
6. Enter key (to submit input or move to the next line)
7. Space bar (to insert spaces)
Keyboards come in various layouts, such as QWERTY, QWERTZ, AZERTY, and others, depending on the region and language. There are also specialized keyboards, like gaming keyboards, ergonomic keyboards, and virtual keyboards (on-screen keyboards).
