Detailed explanation-1: -The Shift key ⇧ Shift is a modifier key on a keyboard, used to type capital letters and other alternate “upper” characters. There are typically two shift keys, on the left and right sides of the row below the home row.
Detailed explanation-2: -The reason there are two Shift keys on a computer keyboard is to make it easier to use the Shift function with all keyboard keys. For example, it’s easier to use the left Shift with all the keys on the right side of the keyboard. Similarly, the right Shift is best used with all keys on the left side of the keyboard.
Detailed explanation-3: -The SHIFT key is used to either type capital letters with the keyboard or to type numbers or symbols that appear on the top half of a keyboard key. The SHIFT key works when you press and hold it down while pressing another key.
