Count With Num Pad Symbols [Archive]

Wodd

23rd April 2011, 10:55

This thread is for counting using the symbols below the numbers on a standard num pad (sometimes called a number pad or ten-key). The symbols are as follows:
1: End
2: ↓ (downwards arrow or down arrow)
3: Page Down
4: ← (lefwards arrow or left arrow)
5: Clear (This key typically has a groove on it for indicated the num pad's "home row.")
6: → (rightwards arrow or right arrow)
7: Home
8: ↑ (upwards arrow or up arrow)
9: Page Up
0: Insert
I typically use Delete for commas and typicall label ten and above using hyphens between literal words. Using ten as an example. It would be End-Insert. One hundred is End-Insert-Insert, and one thousand is End-Delete (the comma)-Insert-Insert-Insert. Ten thousand is End-Insert-Delete-Insert-Insert-Insert. Etcetera

End

↓ one symbol will not allow a post, so I had to use anchor text to make it longer

By the way, I do not think that I mentioned it, but, in case you didn't know it, the arrows are Alt-24 (upwards arrow), Alt-25 (downwards arrow), Alt-26 (rightwards arrow), and Alt-27 (leftwards arrow). The numbers must be typed using the num pad.

Hmmm…a slight oopsy kofplayer, but that sometimes happens. It seems that that number was supposed to be twenty (↓Insert), but perhaps you missed that. That happens sometimes.
↓End
Ah, note to swingdjted: The "clear" is derived from Narrator (in Windows Vista and Windows 7). When you press five on the num pad either while holding Shift, after pressing Shift (if Sticky Keys is enabled), or with Num Lock off, Anna says "clear." What that is for, I have no idea.
