The Keyboard
(Figure 1.8)
Your main interface with your computer will be your keyboard. If you are
unfamiliar with the standard PC keyboard, some of its keys are explained
in this section. The keyboard has all the standard computer typing keys
and some control keys. If you are not familiar with the computer control
keys, the major ones are discussed below.
The [Alt] and [Ctrl] keys, like the [Shift] key alter the function of the
traditional typing keys and the function keys. Depending on the software
you are using, the actual function of the [Alt] and [Ctrl] keys will vary.
They might also be used in combination with each other and/ or with
the [Shift] key to provide further possible combinations of functions
with the typing keys. For example, the [Alt]+[Ctrl]+[Del] combination
is used to close down an application in Windows that has "hung" or can
be used to provide a warm reboot of the computer system.
