typing mistake
Accidental wrong letter
A typing mistake is an error made while typing—hitting the wrong key, transposing letters, or accidentally repeating or omitting characters.
The term is interchangeable with typo, though typing mistake sounds slightly more formal: Sorry, that was a typing mistake—I meant Tuesday, not Thursday.
