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.
