Names that appear after people consider the order of six letters left the first line of keyboard in a typewriter. During the early generation, the form of a typewriter still simple. Letter keyboard layout is different each other, depending on the type of engine and the making of it.

Sholes actually not an inventor, but newspaper editor in malwaukee, United States. because everyday of his the duty is also handles typing process, he knew if typewriter letter handles frequently is each other concerning. The problem was solved sholes try again with set the letters. Especially the letter sequence of use in the English language such as "t" and "h". The process typing held without interruption, although the speed of typing to be more slow.
sholes try to sell the design to the factory typewriter. Remington who later
become famous typewriter manufacturer in the world. When it was first launched in 1874 years, is not considered as a curiosity. Sales turns
not brisk. it may be because the new engine type to provide capital letters

Use QWERTY growing and popular to this day, but not the means does not appear
order new alternative letter. The one that is good is the draft of prof. August
Dvorak from Washington state university from 1932. Dvorak layout to share the letter on the left vocal and consonants on the right. For example, in the middle of the line composed alphabet: AOEUIDHTNS.
order as it makes a second hand typist can work effectively and also be typed
more quickly. There are about 400 words in the English language can be given only from the middle course, qwerty only 100 words. middle line Dvorak also said enough already from the 70% all the work, qwerty only 32%.
withdraw it, the system turns out qwerty there must be thousands of words that are written with the left hand only. while the right hand, only about two hundred words. Of those who make things southpaw it is very profitable, but the problem is the human population in the world that still more use the right hand. Dvorak clearly is superior, but the qwerty broader use. perhaps this can be evidence the problem is not that type merely a matter of convenience and speed, but a matter of habit.
