What does Alt + 0160 stand for?

adds a space

Alt + 0160 is a keyboard shortcut that produces a non-breaking space character in Windows-based operating systems. This character is also known as a "hard space" and is used to create a space between words or characters that cannot be broken by word wrap or line breaks.

In contrast, a regular space character, created by hitting the space bar on your keyboard, is known as a "soft space" and may be broken by word wrap or line breaks if the text is justified or the text box is resized.

To use the Alt + 0160 keyboard shortcut, hold down the "Alt" key and type "0160" on the numeric keypad (usually located on the right side of the keyboard). Once you release the "Alt" key, the non-breaking space character will appear in your text.
