How many keys are on a standard QWERTY keyboard?
104
Background
A typical QWERTY keyboard has 104 keys on it. The layout was designed back in 1874 for mechanical typewriters. Letters were placed apart on purpose so the metal arms would not jam. Faster layouts like Dvorak exist today, but almost nobody uses them.
