Given below is a write-up on the discovery of the Mouse. But the sentences seem to be mixed up. What is the correct logical sequence of these sentences? I. We use the mouse not just because Doug Engelbart invented it, but because it turned out to be the pointing device that performed best for pointing and clicking on a display, outperforming light pens, cursor keys, joysticks, trackballs, and everything else that was tried in early tests with users. II. Years later, when he was searching for a device to select objects on a computer screen, he remembered those notes, and together with Bill English, he built the first mouse. III. He was bored at a conference, and wrote in his notebook about putting two wheels at right angles to track movement on a plane. IV. The mouse won because it was the easiest to use. V. When he was a student, he was measuring the area under some complex-shaped curves, using a device with wheels that would roll in one direction and slide sideways in the axis at ninety degrees. VI. Doug Engelbart tells the story of how he invented the mouse.
