Problem while using joystick as mouse #43

the code I copied from the Arduino IDE website is showing an error. showing"MOUSE not defined"
I have even included the MOUSE library

problem

here is the code

#include <Mouse.h>

/*
JoystickMouseControl

Controls the mouse from a joystick on an Arduino Leonardo, Micro or Due.
Uses a pushbutton to turn on and off mouse control, and a second pushbutton
to click the left mouse button.

Hardware:

  • 2-axis joystick connected to pins A0 and A1
  • pushbuttons connected to pin D2 and D3

The mouse movement is always relative. This sketch reads two analog inputs
that range from 0 to 1023 (or less on either end) and translates them into
ranges of -6 to 6.
The sketch assumes that the joystick resting values are around the middle of
the range, but that they vary within a threshold.

WARNING: When you use the Mouse.move() command, the Arduino takes over your
mouse! Make sure you have control before you use the command. This sketch
includes a pushbutton to toggle the mouse control state, so you can turn on
and off mouse control.

#include <Mouse.h>

// set pin numbers for switch, joystick axes, and LED:
const int switchPin = 2; // switch to turn on and off mouse control
const int mouseButton = 3; // input pin for the mouse pushButton
const int xAxis = A0; // joystick X axis
const int yAxis = A1; // joystick Y axis

bool mouseIsActive = false; // whether or not to control the mouse
int lastSwitchState = LOW; // previous switch state

void setup() {

pinMode(ledPin, OUTPUT); // the LED pin
// take control of the mouse:
Mouse.begin();

// if it's changed and it's high, toggle the mouse state:

// turn on LED to indicate mouse state:

// save switch state for next comparison:

int yReading = readAxis(A1);

// if the mouse control state is active, move the mouse:
if (mouseIsActive) {
Mouse.move(xReading, yReading, 0);
