Logic & Math: ^ & * ( )

Welcome to Lesson 26 at TypingScore.org. We complete the number row with the Right Hand Symbols. These are heavily used in mathematics, logic, and programming.

The "Left Shift" Anchor

Just as you used the Right Shift for the left hand, you must now hold the Left Shift key (Left Pinky) to access these symbols.

• ^ (Caret/Expon): Left Shift + 6 (Right Index). Used for exponents (2^3) and logic.
• & (Ampersand): Left Shift + 7 (Right Index). Used for "and".
• * (Asterisk): Left Shift + 8 (Right Middle). Used for multiplication (5*5).
• ( Open Paren): Left Shift + 9 (Right Ring).
• ) Close Paren): Left Shift + 0 (Right Pinky).

The "6" Reach

The reach for the ^ (6) key is the longest stretch for the Right Index finger. It is often the most frequently missed key in this set. Be sure to return your index finger to the "J" key immediately after typing it.
