Keyboard: Pointing Device Two-Dimensional Pointer Display Graphical User Interface

A computer mouse is a hand-held pointing device that detects two-dimensional motion relative to a surface and translates this motion into cursor movement on a display. Physically, a mouse consists of an object held in one's hand with buttons and may include additional elements like touch surfaces and scroll wheels. A computer keyboard allows a user to enter symbols and is the main input device for most computers. Keyboards come in different designs like QWERTY, which was originally created to avoid jamming on typewriters, and ergonomic keyboards made for comfort.

A computer mouse is a pointing device (hand control) that detects two-dimensional motion relative to a

surface. This motion is typically translated into the motion of a pointer on a display, which allows a smooth
control of the graphical user interface.
Physically, a mouse consists of an object held in one's hand, with one or more buttons. Mice often also feature
other elements, such as touch surfaces and "wheels", which enable additional control and dimensional input.

Keyboard
A computer keyboard is an input device that allows a person to enter symbols like letters and numbers into
a computer. It is the main input device for most computers.
There are different types of keyboards, and different arrangements of keys. The most popular is
the QWERTY design, which is based on typewriter keyboards. The QWERTY design was made so the most
frequently used letters would not jam a mechanical typewriter. Now typewriters are rare but the design stayed
because people were used to it. An ergonomic keyboard is made to be easier for people to use, without hurting
their hands or arms
