As a Windows OS user, You must have observed the Windows PC keyboard has two Alt keys. In some regions, one of the Alt keys would be represented as Alt Gr. This means Alternate Graphics. It serves kind of the same function as the Shift. Like we use the Shift key and combine it with another key to produce a new symbol or world.
