A laptop has a touchpad, also called a trackpad, which is a touch-sensitive pad. Using
a touchpad, we can control the mouse pointer by our finger. Just above or below the
touchpad there are two buttons: left and right mouse buttons.
To click, press the left button with a finger. To right-click, press the
right button with a finger.
To double-click, press the left button twice quickly.
To drag, hold down the left button with one finger and drag the
touchpad with another finger.
To scroll, place two fingers side-by-side on the touchpad and gently move them up
and down on the touchpad surface.
