Contains the keys found on a typical calculator. Use the numeric
keypad area to type numbers or to 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.)
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).
The Insert, Back Space, and Delete keys enable you to make
corrections in your documents.
The 12 function keys along the top of the keyboard are used to
perform designated tasks. For example, in many applications, F1 is
the Help key. The task associated with each function key may vary
from one application to the next.
The Esc (Escape) key is used to cancel commands.
