A '''keyboard layout''' is any specific ''mechanical'', ''visual'', or ''functional'' arrangement of the keys, legends, or key-meaning associations (respectively) of a [[computer keyboard|computer]], [[typewriter]], or other [[typographic]] keyboard.
Mechanical layout is the placements and ''keys'' of a keyboard. Visual layout is the arrangement of the ''legends'' (labels, markings, engravings) that appear on the keys of a keyboard. Functional layout is the arrangement of the ''key-meaning associations'', determined in software, of all the keys of a keyboard.
