the keyboard. The first step in cutting, copying, and pasting is
to select the block of text you want to work with.

clipboard. Only one block of text can be stored in the clipboard
at a time, and it will remain there until a new block of text is cut
or copied. There is no limit to the number of times you can
paste the same text from the clipboard.
