All of the function keys (F1, F2, F3, F4 and so on) don't really stand for anything, F1 just means "function key 1."

However when you press the F1 key on a windows operating system it will usually pull up Help for the operating system or for the program that you are using.

On the middle row A, four keys in from left to right is A, S, D, and 'F'.But could the F in the question be about the function keys? f1, f2, f3, and so on? Without more information, I have to assume that it is the alphabetical key for 'F'.
