Why does the HUD's chunk coordinates information have 3 numbers?
When I press F3 to turn on the HUD, my chunk line says something like this.
Chunk: 8 6 0 in -17 4 3
My understanding is that I am standing on block 8 6 0 in the -17 4 3 chunk. By shouldn't chunks be 2 dimensional since they go from bedrock to sky level? Why are there 3 numbers?

Pressing F3 ( Fn + F3 on Mac and some laptops) brings up the debug screen, but without the graphs. The graph appears upon pressing \u21e7 Shift + F3 ( Fn + \u21e7 Shift + F3 on Mac and some laptops). Information about the player's speed and whether the player is touching the ground have added to the debug screen.How do you find coordinates without F3?
As other answers suggest you can use third party programs to rebind a key or key combination to F3. Other options include the Windows on screen keyboard if you're actually using Windows. You can install a minimap mod if there is one for whichever version of MC you're playing. They usually display coordinates.What Is A HUD?
