how to use padding and where to use code example

Example 1: css padding

padding: 5px 10px 15px 20px; //top right bottom left

padding: 10px 20px;//top & bottom then left & right

padding-top: 5px; //just top padding
padding-right: 10px; //just right padding
padding-bottom: 15px; //just bottom padding
padding-left: 20px; //just left padding

Example 2: padding

Padding is how much an element is away from itself — 
how much distance an element wants to keep with the elements inside it.

Example 3: padding css

.box {
  padding: <padding-top> || <padding-right> || <padding-bottom> || <padding-left>
}
