How to take a screenshot on Mac?

Taking a screenshot on a Mac can be done in several ways:


1. **Entire Screen:**

   -Press Command (⌘) + Shift + 3: This captures the entire screen and saves it as an image file on your desktop by default.


2. **Selected Portion of the Screen:**

   - Press Command (⌘) + Shift + 4:  Your cursor changes to a crosshair. Click and drag to select the portion of the screen you want to capture. Release the mouse to take the screenshot.


3. **Specific Window:**

   - Press Command (⌘) + Shift + 4 + Spacebar: Your cursor changes to a camera icon. Click on the window you want to capture. It takes a screenshot of that specific window.


After taking the screenshot, by default, it will be saved to your desktop with the filename starting with "Screen Shot" followed by the date and time. You can also press and hold the Control key while taking the screenshot to copy it to the clipboard instead of saving it as a file.


These keyboard shortcuts provide quick ways to capture your screen or a portion of it on a Mac.
