Each switch in a column is connected the same way – one side of the switch is connected to all of the other switches in that column by a conductive trace.

The buttons on a keypad are arranged in rows and columns. It includes all of the parts, wiring diagrams, code, and step-by-step instructions for 58 different robotics and internet of things projects that are super fun to build!
