Codes of characters available on the keyboard
Hello! Today on seo-mayak.com we will talk about the symbols that are on the keyboard.
At one time, I was very interested in the question. how to substitute the degree symbol for the numbers? On my culinary blog, I had to write degrees in words, but after all, I saw with my own eyes how on the second sites they use a special symbol, which is substituted for numbers when it is necessary to indicate the temperature or the degree of inclination (36.6 ° or 90 °).
Without finding an answer, I decided that only the coolest text editors, in which I do not know, can have such capabilities.Now it’s funny, of course, but at that time I didn’t know a lot of things and didn’t know how, but this was all compensated by an irresistible desire to figure everything out.
As it turned out later, text editors had nothing to do with it, but the “moreover” turned out to be the most ordinary keyboard with which you can type, for example, this symbol †.
And yet, how can you type such “exotic” on the keyboard? In fact, everything is simple! There are even several options for typing the same characters:
Option. Using hot keys. The so called Alt code is used, i.e. The first key in the code is Alt.
Option. Using decimal number system codes (HTML code).
Option. Using Hexadecimal Numeral Codes (Unicode).
Option. With the help of nominal substitutions or Mnemonics, which serve to facilitate memorability, but this is very controversial, since the characters in the code are still English.
I created tables and split the codes into groups. I hope this post will be a useful cheat sheet for you.
Punctuation codes
You do not have to resort to writing numeric codes, but simply copy the symbol directly from the table and paste it into your text editor.

Math Symbol Codes
I hope that webmasters whose sites have a mathematical bias will find the following symbols very useful.
Num Pad
This is a separate numeric block located on the right side of the input device.
Not all laptops have it as it takes up additional space. To activate its keys, press “Num lock”. In this case, a special indicator should light up.
Question: where is the num 6 button on the keyboard?
Answer: this moment is of interest to many gamers who, at the time of the game, are faced with a control problem. Finding this element is very simple:
Yes, you are NOT mistaken. These are the usual numbers located in the nampad zone. No problems, agree?
Question: I enter a password on one of the sites using NumPad numbers, but the service responds that “the password is incorrect”. What could be the problem?
Answer: Most often, the NumLock mode is deactivated after a system restart (the indicator is NOT lit). But many users forget to look at the “light bulb” and press numbers that don’t work. As a result, you enter the password incorrectly and an error appears. Just remember to activate the numeric keypad!
I think I managed to clarify the situation a little, tell how to put a question mark on a laptop keyboard, etc. If you are interested in other buttons, you can write comments on this article, and we will figure it out together.
Also, I recommend reading my posts on the Fn function key:
Very often, novice PC users ask me seemingly simple questions. For example, how do you put a question mark on a laptop or computer keyboard? This article I am Dedicated to answering similar requests.
To make it easier for you to navigate, I recommend reading one of my previous publications in the arrangement of buttons and their purpose.
Now let’s move on to considering the topics.
This is where this Keyboard Element is located:
Question: where to move the cursor when pressing the Home key?
Answer: It is clear that we are NOT talking about a mouse pointer, but a “vertical blinking stick” in text editors (Notepad, Notepad, Word).
- If you use “clean press” (without using other buttons), then the cursor will go to the beginning of the current line.
- The combination Ctrl Home will return the cursor to the very beginning of the file (document).
It is located under the Home button and performs the opposite actions in the text:
- Combined with Ctrl, moves the cursor to the very bottom (end) of the document;
- If you just press End, the “caret” will move past the last character of the current line.
Question mark “?
This may sound surprising, but there are several ways to solve this “problem”. The easiest one is to find the corresponding key, which is located here:
As you can see, this symbol is located in the upper digital row on the “seven” and near the right Shift along with a comma, period and a slash.

How to type a question mark on a laptop keyboard
The built-in laptop keyboard is small, so many of the keys on this device are multifunctional. The input of various characters in addition to the letters of the Russian and Latin registers is performed by pressing certain keys. How to put a question mark on the keyboard of any laptop. we will tell further.
Traditional input method
The question mark on the laptop buttons is located in two places:
- In the digital row with the designation of the number “7”.
- In the lower letter row on the right next to the letter “U”.
To make a symbol “?” when entering, it is necessary to press the corresponding button while holding the auxiliary “Shift”.
You should act depending on the alphabetical layout:
- When the Russian register is turned on, “Shift” is combined with 7 and a question mark.
- When the Latin layout is on, the combination “Shift” and a question mark in the letter row is valid.
Using numeric Alt code dialing
All laptop models are equipped with a keyboard with a numeric keypad, which is activated:
- “Num Lock” when there is a selected block as in the picture below.
- The combination “Fn” “Num Lock” in the absence of a separate digital block. In this case, its functions are performed by the number and letter keys defined by the developer. Additional functionality on the buttons is indicated, like the “Fn” button, in a second color (usually blue).
Numeric keypad
When digital water is activated, it is easy to set the required designation using the Corresponding Alt-code. In this case, while holding the auxiliary key “Alt”, you need to dial 63. Code Alt-combinations Given in the table:

“Alto”.codes
How to put characters on the keyboard? Another solution. This is the use of alt codes. This solution allows you to quickly type special characters on your computer.
Instructions for working with alt codes look like this:
- Activate the mode on the computer “Num Lok”. If the option is active, the corresponding indicator light on the keypad will light up.
- Place the cursor where the character is to be printed.
- Hold down the key “Alto”. There are usually two on the keyboard. Any.
- Enter the alt-code on the numeric panel (on the right side of the keyboard). It can be clarified in a special reference book or by “Windows Symbol Tables”.
- Release buttons.
After that, this or that symbol will appear in the text document. Thus, characters on the keyboard are typed very quickly.
To put in the described way “Vord” infinity sign, on the keyboard you need to hold “Viola” dial 8734. This will print the ∞ character. Press Alt 3 to print hearts.
“Unicode” to help
Characters on the keyboard can be typed using “Unicode “. This is another easy way to set Special Characters.

- Dial U0025 (plus).
- Press “Alto” H.
Keypad buttons
On the keyboard, the characters are located in different places. Usually, special characters can be found to the left of the main alphabet or above it. It’s about number buttons.
When typing characters using the keys on the keyboard, either the Russian layout or the English one is used. For example, to put a full stop, you can:
- Click on the button located to the left of the right “shift”, being on set “Russian”;
- Go to the English layout and click on the letter “YU”.
Typically, keyboard characters typed in this way are limited to slash, parentheses, and punctuation. It’s easy to pick them up.
Working with teams “Copy” and “Paste
Before studying such techniques, it is worth paying attention to one more. It’s about using options “Copying” and “Insert”. They can be switched on using the keyboard.
To print this or that special character, the user will need:
- Find a ready-made text with the desired sign.
- Highlight Matching Symbol. For example, using the key “Shift” and keyboard arrows.
- Press Ctrl C. This option is responsible for copying the character to the PC clipboard.
- Place the typing cursor in the desired location.

- Make sure that the Russian layout is currently activated on the keyboard panel.
- Click on the “Shift” and on the previously mentioned key.
Fast, simple and very convenient. Unfortunately, not all characters on the keyboard can be found. Alt codes and Unicode are commonly used to insert a variety of special characters.
Dialing methods
How to put signs? Only part of the Special characters is located on the keyboard. And usually there are no problems with their set.
Among the possible ways to set Special characters are:
- Using buttons with corresponding characters
- Working with a keyboard shortcut;
