What are the three main selectors in css

The three main selectors in css are: id selector, class selector and element selector. The id selector can specify a specific style for HTML elements marked with a specific id; the class selector allows the style to be specified in a way that is independent of the document element; the element selector selects all tag elements with the specified element name.
