about function keys

[killerbuzz]

i just bought my first macbook pro a week ago and while i'm looking around in spaces setting there is a drop down where you can choose which key to activate spaces and there was F13.

so I was wondering how to access that function key i tried everything but cant seem to find it.

one more thing while i was watching one of the movies on youtube the guy mentioned fn F19. the question is how to get that key.

Press the FN key (bottom left) or enable the following:

There are wider keyboards (with numpad), that have 19 function keys.

I thought about the other keyboards and I looked at my HP laptop which had an extended keyboard but i didnt see the f19 on it so i thought i needed to edit my keys shortcuts to get it.
