mouseY()
The `mouseY()` function in p5.js retrieves the current vertical position of the mouse cursor on the canvas. Creative coders often use this to create interactive experiences, such as changing colors or shapes based on mouse movement. For example, imagine a drawing application where the brush size or color changes dynamically as the user moves the mouse up and down the screen.
