Keyboarding Skills - INTERMEDIATE LEVEL - BLOCK THREE

BRACES, BACKSLASH, PIPE, PLUS, and DASH

Take a look right above the ENTER key. You will notice curly braces({}), square braces ([]), the backslash (\), and the pipe symbol (|). Above these keys are the keys that produce the plus sign (+), equal sign (=), dash (-), and underscore (_). All of these are located in the RIGHT PINKY zone. The symbols on the top of the key require the use of the shift key.

Also you should be aware of the regular slash (/), which is also pressed with the pinky finger, but on the bottom row.
