A number based keypad can be called a numeric keypad, also known as "numpads", these are often used on computer keyboards, digital and numerical based locks such as combination locks.

Calculators as well as keyboard number pads often consist of numerical digits and symbols, they are often formatted 0-9 bottom to top - left to right, the symbols are usually above and to the right of these digits , on numpads and simple calculators the main mathematical symbols are; . =, +, -, *, /.

Advanced calculators such as 'Scientific Calculators' contain even more buttons with mathematical symbols and functions, these calculators usually have a different layout/format from the simple set previously mentioned.
