NOTE

ALPHANUMERIC KEYS

Alphanumeric keys on a keyboard include both letters and numbers. They are essential for typing text and entering numerical data. For instance:

  1. Letters (A-Z): These keys are used to input alphabetical characters for forming words and sentences.
  2. Numbers (0-9): These keys are used for numeric input, calculations, and data entry.

In addition to letters and numbers, alphanumeric keys may also include:

  1. Special Characters: Accessible through Shift or other modifier keys, these include punctuation marks (!, @, #, etc.), symbols ($, %, &, etc.), and other characters (@, #, etc.) used in typing and data entry.

Soft Touch Manipulation

Soft-touch manipulation refers to using a gentle and controlled approach when interacting with keys, especially on a keyboard or other input devices. Below are some major points:

  1. Gentle Keystrokes: Press keys lightly and with minimal force to prevent unnecessary strain on fingers and hands.
  2. Precision: Aim for accurate keystrokes by aligning fingers correctly on the home row and using the appropriate finger for each key.
  3. Avoiding Fatigue: Soft-touch manipulation reduces the risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSI) and fatigue associated with prolonged typing sessions.
  4. Efficiency: Typing with a soft touch can improve typing speed and accuracy over time as it encourages smooth and fluid movements.
