About Numbers and its shortcuts

Numbers is a spreadsheet that thinks in tables on a canvas rather than one endless grid, and its keyboard reflects that: commands act on a table, a row or a cell, and there are view commands for moving around a sheet that holds several tables at once.

Numbers is Mac only here. Anyone arriving from another spreadsheet should expect genuine differences rather than renamed equivalents, because the underlying model is not the same.
