Imagine you're writing a letter on paper, and each word is like a puzzle piece. The keyboard is your tool, it turns the letters into little puzzle pieces that the computer understands. Then the computer puts them all together to make words and sentences. It's kind of like how you build blocks one by one.
Examples
- When you press the 'a' key, it sends a signal to the computer, which turns that signal into an 'A'.
- Your computer uses special codes like 65 for 'A', making sense of all your typing.
