Where does the 'Z' in Ctrl Z come from?

The 'Z' in Ctrl+Z typically stands for "undo," which is derived from the Word "zap," meaning to erase or eliminate. This keyboard shortcut is widely used in software applications to reverse the last action taken by the user. The choice of 'Z' may also be influenced by its position on the keyboard, making it easy to access in combination with the Ctrl key.
