When Caps Lock is on, all alphabetic characters typed
are in uppercase.
When Num Lock is on, the keypad is in numeric mode.
The keys function as a calculator (complete with the
arithmetic operators +, -, *, and /). Use this mode
when you need to do a lot of numeric data entry.
When Scroll Lock is on, text on the screen moves one
line up or down when you press the up or down arrow
keys. Scroll Lock does not work with most
applications.
