MOUSE PAD

                 A mouse is usually kept on a pad, which is called a mouse
                 pad. The mouse pad keeps our mouse free from dust and

                 makes it easier to use.

                           ACTIONS OF A MOUSE

                 Pointing and Clicking are the two main actions of a mouse. Pointing means to

                 point at something using a mouse pointer, whereas Clicking means selecting
                 any object or item. Many actions can be performed using a mouse.

                 When we press the right button of a mouse once, it is called
