I believe that it has not become clear to all readers. In plain words,
you need a keyboard
that has a number panel to the right of the letter keyboard. These
number keys will also,
adjacent to them, on the right, have a - sign at the top right, and a +
sign at the middle right.
These + and - keys have a DIFFERENT key code than the ones on the letter
keyboard.
Laptops don't have a separate number panel, and many--perhaps most--of
the k/b's
that come with new computers don't either. People who don't do numeric
entry for
a living mostly don't need that facility, so it gets left off--and saves
money for the
computer industry.
I'm very sure that he's referring to the regular number keys at the top.
The international ones tend to have extra characters on them for local
currencies.
The most common reason for not having a number pad is because there
isn't room. I have two laptops beside me. One has no number pad and
the keyboard still goes from edge to edge. It's not wide enough for
more. The other, much larger one, does have the keypad. Almost all
laptops that I've seen and that are wide enough do have the keypad.
