Believing back to my intermediate school typing class (done on electric typewriters, not computer systems) I keep in mind questioning why the keyboard wasnt set up in alphabetical order. When my five-year-old asked me the very same question, I was just recently advised of that. I understood that the response was connected to the frequency of usage of specific letters and likewise the early limitations of typewriter keyboard configurations. To get a better response I turned to YouTube where I knew I had actually seen a video on the subject not that long ago..
