+Runs the callback whenever the user input type changes (`mouse` or `touch`).
+
+- Use two event listeners.
+- Assume `mouse` input initially and bind a `'touchstart'` event listener to the document.
+- On `'touchstart'`, add a `'mousemove'` event listener to listen for two consecutive `'mousemove'` events firing within 20ms, using `performance.now()`.
+- Run the callback with the input type as an argument in either of these situations.
+
+```js
+const onUserInputChange = callback => {
+  let type = 'mouse',
+    lastTime = 0;
+  const mousemoveHandler = () => {
+    const now = performance.now();
+    if (now - lastTime < 20)
+      (type = 'mouse'),
+        callback(type),
+        document.removeEventListener('mousemove', mousemoveHandler);
+    lastTime = now;
+  };
+  document.addEventListener('touchstart', () => {
+    if (type === 'touch') return;
+    (type = 'touch'),
+      callback(type),
+      document.addEventListener('mousemove', mousemoveHandler);
+  });
+};
+```
+
+```js
+onUserInputChange(type => {
+  console.log('The user is now using', type, 'as an input method.');
+});
+```
