In most text editors and word processing software, the left arrow key on the keyboard is the primary way to move the cursor one character to the left. Additionally, holding the "Ctrl" key while pressing the left arrow key typically moves the cursor to the beginning of the previous word. In some programming environments, you may also use specific keyboard shortcuts defined by the software.
