Do you know that a computer has more keyboard symbols than just letters and numbers? There are 49 popular keyboard symbols and on this page, I will show you the names and locations of each keyboard symbol and special characters beyond the letters (A-Z) and numbers (0-9).

You can always come back to copy any of the symbols instead of trying to find the keyboard symbols shortcuts which might take time.
