Question

Which of the following is a toggle key ?

• A. esc
• B. shift
• C. spacebar
• D. capslock

Answer 1

Answer:

D. capslock

Caps Lock is a toggle key because it:

- Switches between uppercase and lowercase typing

- Remains in the selected state until pressed again

- Does not require holding down the key

Toggle keys are keys that switch between two states, typically indicated by a light or changed behavior.

The other options:

- Esc (Escape) is a command key that cancels or exits operations.

- Shift is a modifier key that changes the behavior of other keys.

- Spacebar is a non-modifier key that inserts spaces.

Other examples of toggle keys include:

- Num Lock

- Scroll Lock

- Insert

These keys also switch between two states when pressed.
