Reflecting to my middle school typing class (done on electrical typewriters, not computer systems) I keep in mind wondering why the keyboard wasnt arranged in alphabetical order. I was just recently advised of that when my five-year-old asked me the same concern. I understood that the answer was connected to the frequency of usage of specific letters and also the early limitations of typewriter keyboard setups. To get a much better answer I turned to YouTube where I understood I had actually seen a video on the topic not that long ago..
