Abstract

The disclosure provides an information processing method. The method includes: detecting a first input operation by a touch sensing unit; determining whether a first condition is satisfied; executing a first instruction set if it is determined that the first condition is satisfied; and executing a second instruction set different from the first instruction set if it is determined that the first condition is not satisfied, the first instruction set includes at least a first display instruction for displaying an array of input identities by a display unit which is overlapped with the touch sensing unit, and the array of input identities includes at least one input identity, the input identity being an identity which is capable of being triggered by a second input operation detected by the touch sensing unit in order to input data corresponding to the input identity. The method can make input operations more convenient.
