Key Description
ALT
The ALT (alternate) key is used with other keys to perform special tasks. On
some operating systems pressing CTRL+ALT+DEL twice soft reboots the
computer .
ALT GR
The ALT GR key, a special function key found on the 87-key international
keyboard, when pressed and held, allows you to use characters in the bottom

The BACKSPACE key, sometimes represented on the keyboard as a left
arrow, moves the cursor one position to the left. The character to the left of
the cursor is erased.

Pressing the caps lock key one time locks keys A through Z in the UPPER

characters located on the upper portion of the keyboard. For example, press
shift+8 to type an asterisk (*), even when the caps lock key is activated.
The CAPS LOCK activity indicator is on when the keyboard is in CAPS
LOCK mode.

The ctrl (control) key works with other keys to perform a variety of functions.

The shift key changes the keys A through Z to the UPPER CASE position.
When you press an alphabetic key, the character appears as a capital letter.
When you press shift with other keys, the characters on the upper part of the
keys appear. For example, pressing shift+7 displays an ampersand (&).
