Symbols and
Punctuation Marks
These characters are divided into two groups because of their
physical locations. The first group contains the symbols that are
located on the upper part of the keys that have the numerals 1
through 0 on the lower half. The second group are those
characters located on keys that have two special symbols on
them. The symbol that appears on the upper half of a key
requires depression of the SH I FT key to display it. Figures 15
and 16 show the locations of all symbols and give each symbol's
name.
