Step # 1: Choose a Basic Keyboard Layout

Since the goal is to develop an "ideal" layout, you first need to take care of how the characters will be positioned on the keyboard.

A bit of gag: I, like everyone else, studying ten-finger blind input, typed on the familiar QWERTY layout. In the process of use, I experienced fierce discomfort (perhaps there are not very many of us): the left index finger, the right ring finger and the little finger got tired (even though P is far from the most frequent symbol in English). It was also noticed that the fingers stretch out strongly when typing - as if trying to get away from each other.

To answer the question why this is happening, I created an Excel file, which clearly shows the load on each character, and added a table of the frequency of letters of the English language (the result is on the screenshot).
