The Alt and Ctrl keys both in their own right gives extra useability for a software. They are using for shortcuts which reduces the time for doing an operation instead of using a mouse. For example, for copy, you can use your mouse, and click edit, then paste, or use a keyboard command Crtl+C
The space and enter. That's obvious. Space is to add a space and enter is to return a line or execute a command.
But actually, it all depends on the computer programmer. he/she can easily swope enter and space the other way around if they really want to, but as for a Graphic User Interface world we live in today, we are so used to the way that commands should be done that this is usually all standarised.

The "Shift", "Ctrl", and "Alt" keys are colelctively referred to as "Shift keys". I know, it seems confusing.
The explanation is rather simple, however. When you press a key by itself, the keyboard generates a number which is digitally transmitted to your computer. When you hold one or more "shift keys", it either changes the numebr that is sent by your keyboard, are in fact sends TWO numbers. In this way, the possible list of "values" that your keyboard can generate is greatly increased. You can press the "A" key by itself and get one number. You can press "Shift-A", and get another number. "Ctrl-A" is different again, and "Ctrl-Shift-A" is yet again different.
So every key on your keyboard has 1 unshifted value, and 6 possible "Shift States".

When these keys are pressed in conjunction with another key a code is sent to the program to cause an action. Different codes are sent if the shift, alt, or cntl key is pressed.

ALT does one thing and CTRL does something else. Especially when used in conjunction with another button...
For example, hold down the ALT key and press F4. Go ahead, try it.

I hate to ask a question in return, but.....
What is the difference between the space and the enter key?
See the thing is, they do different things.
Both are mainly used for keyboard shortcut commands.
