Delete

A computer keyboard's "Delete" key is used to remove characters that are directly to the right of the cursor. The character that is currently under the cursor gets erased when we hit the Delete key, and any characters to its right move to the left to fill the empty space.

Typos and unnecessary characters are frequently fixed by pressing the Delete key. While the Backspace key deletes characters to the left of the cursor, the Delete key deletes characters to the right of the pointer. Both keys perform a similar function.
