why are computer and typewriter keyboards not in alphabetical order?

Q: why are all the letters mixed up for. would't it be better if they were in order,then it would be a lot easier to locate a letter on the keyboard that you might be looking for.

A: the keys on the keyboard are mixed up because the way english language work, and its alot easier to type with 8 fingers and 2 thumbs. if it was in alphabetical order then you only need one finger to type and would take long time to type a word. the keys are organized that way b/c different fingers have different letters control on it so its easier to give job for ex. point(1st) finger its on letter G and J and the letters around it so we know that if you move it up u will put it on T or R like that. home u get it. by the way its a good question.
