Additional notes

Keyboards come in all kinds of varieties and yours might look different from the one shown in the video. Many keyboards have a number pad on the far right. These keys provide another set of cursor keys or an alternative method of entering numbers. To enable number entry with the number pad, you need to press the "Num Lock" key.

Some keyboards also have different layouts for letters, sometimes designed to better accommodate different languages. Two popular alternative keyboard layouts are the AZERTY layout and the Dvorak layout.
