A mouse and a keyboard are the important parts of a computer. A mouse is an
                  input device, used to select an object on the monitor. When we move a mouse, an

                  arrow-like pointer displayed on the monitor also moves. First, let us learn about the
                  mouse.




                            TYPES OF MOUSE


                  The different types of the computer mouse are:

                  OPTICAL MOUSE


                  An optical mouse is the most commonly used mouse. It uses  laser
                  light to help in moving the pointer on the screen.



                                       GAMING MOUSE

                                       A gaming mouse is generally used to play games. It is similar to a

                                       scroll mouse but works much faster.




                  WIRELESS MOUSE


                  A wireless mouse connects to the computer without a wire. It is also
                  known as a cordless mouse. It uses wireless technology to send signals
                  to the computer and helps it work.




                            ACTIONS OF A MOUSE


                  A mouse is used to perform various actions.


                  SINGLE-CLICK OR LEFT-CLICK

                  To left-click a mouse, press the left mouse button

                  once  and then release it.  Doing this  makes  a
                  clicking sound. This action is called clicking and             Click

                  it is done to select an item on the screen.
