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 mouse.






                            TYPES OF MOUSE

                  The different types of computer mouse are:

                  OPTICAL MOUSE


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


                                       GAMING MOUSE


                                       The 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.

                  To left-click a mouse, press the left mouse

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

                  clicking and it is done to select an item on
