additional keys that perform specific computer-related tasks.

Description

Contains the keys found on a typical calculator. Use the

keys. 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.)

(the four arrow keys which also function as the Home, End,
