How do I create a em-dash/en-dash on my HP laptop?

I've been looking for a way to create an en-dash/em-dash on my computer, but I cannot figure it out. I've done my research and have learned nothing on how to do it on an HP. Can someone please help me?

Are you trying to create these characters in a certain software like MS Office or at a command prompt or in a browser session or just what exactly? Some software apps will apparently generate the longer en-dash when you type two consecutive hyphens (I got this behavior in Libre Office for example). How to type the so called em-dash in MS word.

I'm trying to put these into a google document. The problem is I can't generate it at all, even when I type in two Hyphens.

Ah, then similar to one I gave above under MS word...

1. Select from menu as follows: Insert->Special Characters

2. Type "em-dash" in search box. I got about five possible choices but the first one shown in results is the vanilla em-dash.

Same sequence but search for en-dash on the other character. It returns the first one again is the one you want I am guessing. All characters are displayed along with the appropriate unicode universal representation as well in the search results when you hover the mouse pointer over each returned result in the list.
