Do you know what are the ALT Codes ? Let me explain you in just two lines. There are many symbols and letters which we use everyday but those keys are missing on our keyboard as it required a lot of space to put those keys on it. Then how to type those symbols. Yes one way is there. Just by using the ALT codes you can type all the following symbols.
How to type
To type these symbols just hold the alt button and type the corresponding number from your numeric keypad(don't use the top numeric keypad, use the right side numeric keypad) and the release alt button. For example: If you want to get the α symbol just hold your alt and then type 224 and then release alt.

Oh noooo, I use a laptop and I don't have the numeric keypad
Wait.....If you are using laptop then you will not get the side numeric keypad, rather you can make your Num Lk on and then type using the same process. But remember you have to type the numbers using the keys M, J, K, L, U, I, O, 7, 8, 9. You can see these number written on those keys on your laptop keyboard.
Example: If you want to get the symbol α then make your Num Lk on, hold your alt key and type KKU
What I gonna do with those damn symbols
Yes, definitely a good question. A smart answer is when you are typing in some other language like Portuguese or Greek then it will be very useful. The left, right, top and bottom arrows are also useful. When the exact situation will come you will better understand.
See you next time. Bye.
