Typing with the character keys is very much like typing on a 
typewriter, except that: 

❖

The space bar creates a space character instead of just passing 
over an area of the page.

❖

The lowercase letter l (el) and the number 1 are not 
interchangeable.

❖

The uppercase letter O and the number 0 are not 
interchangeable.

The function keys (not to be confused with the 

Fn

 key) are the 12 

keys at the top of the keyboard. 

F1

 through 

F12

 are called function keys because they execute 

programmed functions when pressed. Function keys marked with 
icons execute specific functions on the computer. For example, 

F5

 turns the touch pad ON/OFF. For more information, see
