Using the Keyboard

Your keyboard is very similar to a typewriter’s, but the keyboard has additional
keys that perform specific computer-related tasks.

Numeric keypad area

Contains the keys found on a typical calculator. Use

perform mathematical calculations such as addition
and subtraction. Note that you must press the Num
Lock key to activate the numeric keypad. (When you
do so, the Num Lock light will be on.)

Navigation keys

Several keys are devoted to moving the cursor on the
screen (the four arrow keys which also function as the
Home, End, Page Up, and Page Down keys).
