\u00bfQu\u00e9 significa teclado QWERTY?<\/span><\/h2>\n

El teclado QWERTY es la distribuci\u00f3n de teclado moderna m\u00e1s utilizada. Fue dise\u00f1ado y desarrollado por Christopher Sholes, el inventor de la m\u00e1quina de escribir, en 1874. El teclado recibi\u00f3 su nombre de las seis primeras letras de la l\u00ednea alfab\u00e9tica del teclado.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Se populariz\u00f3 el mito de que Sholes lo dise\u00f1\u00f3 as\u00ed para evitar atascos de combinaciones de letras de uso frecuente. Esto tiene algo de verdad, ya que las primeras m\u00e1quinas de escribir se atascaban con frecuencia cuando se pulsaban dos letras adyacentes al mismo tiempo.<\/p>\n

Colocar las combinaciones de letras de uso frecuente lejos unas de otras ayudaba a evitarlo. Sin embargo, esta colocaci\u00f3n tambi\u00e9n dificulta una mecanograf\u00eda m\u00e1s r\u00e1pida.<\/p>\n

El teclado QWERTY tambi\u00e9n se conoce como teclado Sholes.<\/p>\n

Definici\u00f3n de teclado QWERTY<\/span><\/h2>\n

Cuando se populariz\u00f3 la disposici\u00f3n del teclado QWERTY, los dise\u00f1adores y desarrolladores empezaron a crear versiones alternativas, alegando que pod\u00edan ser m\u00e1s eficientes de utilizar. Una de estas versiones se dise\u00f1\u00f3 para tel\u00e9fonos m\u00f3viles, y se conoce como medio QWERTY.<\/p>\n

Con esta disposici\u00f3n del teclado, dos o m\u00e1s caracteres comparten la misma tecla<\/strong>, lo que aumenta la superficie pero reduce mucho el n\u00famero de teclas.<\/p>\n

Otra versi\u00f3n es el QWERTY desplazado<\/strong>, que tambi\u00e9n se dise\u00f1\u00f3 para dispositivos m\u00f3viles, concretamente para dispositivos con pantalla t\u00e1ctil. Se trata esencialmente de un dise\u00f1o QWERTY dividido en dos, con la mitad derecha algo reordenada bajo la mitad izquierda. Esto se vio por primera vez en la aplicaci\u00f3n para iPhone<\/a> “LittlePad”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
