Because of ASCII codes, it is no longer necessary to use the QWERTY keyboard. Users can hit the Alt button and enter a numerical code on the number pad to produce a character on screen. Users can also create their own codes to generate characters, which could lead to a smaller keyboard. However, QWERTY keyboards are still considered to be more user-friendly.

Why is the keyboard say qwerty on the top row?

Because before the age of computers, keyboards already existed in word processors and even earlier typewriters. These keyboards had to be standardised so a trained secretary for instance could use any typewriter in any office or if the boss kindly purchased a new one for her. The position of the keys on a keyboard relate to the amount of usage they get when typing English with both hands. So the most common letters are the vowels A,E,I,O and U and you will see A and E on the left hand side and I,O and U on the right hand side. Next common letter is S and so on. All these keyboards are called qwerty keyboards because those are the letters in top left as if you were reading from a page. simples!


Why was the QWERTY layout invented?

The QWERTY layout was invented in the 1870s by Christopher Latham Sholes, primarily for use in typewriters. Its design aimed to reduce the likelihood of jamming by placing frequently used letter pairs farther apart, allowing for smoother typing. The layout has since become the standard for English-language keyboards, largely due to its widespread adoption and the momentum of established usage.
