The "home row" on the keyboard is where your hands should fall by default for touch typing. This row consists of asdfghjkl;. Your left hand fingers should lay on asdf and your right hand fingers should lay on jkl;. Home row numbers is a keyboard mapping popularized by the USPS data entry system in which the numbers 1 through 0 are mapped in order on the home row. The A key is also 1, the S key is also 2, etc. This allows the typing of numbers without lifting or moving the hands off of the home row, thus allowing for greater speeds and accuracy.

(some people its not faster for thought like me i do not use the home row i am slower on the home row)
