Mouse
A mouse is a small device used to input a user's actions
to the computer. When a mouse is moved, the mouse cursor or "pointer" moves as well in tandem to it
on the computer screen.
A mouse also has buttons that let the user interact with various objects and commands on the screen.
Pressing the >mouse button
usually is enough to execute these commands. This
is also called a mouse click.
