Move the mouse cursor - The primary function is to move the mouse cursor on the screen
Open or execute a program - Once you've moved the cursor to an icon, folder, or other object clicking or double clicking that object opens the document or executes the program
Select - A mouse also allows you to select text or a file or highlight and select multiple files at once.
Drag-and-drop - Once something is selected it can also be moved using the drag-and-drop method.
Hover - Moving the mouse cursor over objects with additional hover information can help discover the function of each object on the screen. For example, hover the mouse over the hover link to see an example.
