QWERTY is the most commonly used keyboard layout on an English language computers as well as typewriters today. Its name is derived from the initial 6 alphabets viewed on the top row of letters on the keyboard. This pattern was structured by Christopher Soles and he also acquired a patent for it in the year 1868. Remington bought it in the year 1873, when it initially began appearing in typewriters.
Initially, the letters and characters were set up in an alphabetical order, which created a problem for the typists.
The QWERTY sequence provided a solution for the jamming problem faced by typists by segregating common series of alphabets as far from each other as could be made possible. In this way, the hammers that would be probably used immediately one after another would not interfere with each other.
