Why is it that if you hold down both shift keys only some of the letters show?

This shocking event is called "masking". In most keyboards, shift keys, when pressed together, just cannot allow the correct pressing of a button. For example, if you were to type "ALEX" while holding down both shift keys, you will find that you can only type "AL". This is because the shift keys, together, block the connection between the button pressed (Such as "E" or "X"). That means you press the button, but the computer does not recognize it. Usually, you can only type 16 of the 26 letters on the keyboard.

Why are keys called keys on a keyboard?

In the days of typewriters, the capital letters were in a lower row on the type bar than the lowercase letters.
