CSS Float & Clear

FLOAT

The CSS float property specifies how an element should float.
so let’s Understand with the example
left - The element floats to the left of its container
right - The element floats to the right of its container
none - The element does not float (will be displayed just where it occurs in the text). This is default
inherit - The element inherits the float value of its parent
so here in example we have very 2 images there will taking space and not beutifull visually too
so make it them right or left side we used
float:left or float:right

Example:1st of float

Example:2nd of float

when we make navigation bar and we applied float and our element(li) out from ul container.
when we float ul make it smaller so li comes out of ul to prevent this overflow . property of overflow comes in picture
this li overflow from ul stop by overflow : auto

CLEAR PROPERTY

CLEAR PROPERTY APPLY ON FLOATED ELEMENT AND NON-FLOATED ELEMENT TOO
clear property decide the other floated element stay left or right of floated element
The clear property specifies what elements can float beside the cleared element and on which side.
The clear property can have one of the following values:
none - Allows floating elements on both sides. This is default
left - No floating elements allowed on the left side
right- No floating elements allowed on the right side
both - No floating elements allowed on either the left or the right side
inherit - The element inherits the clear value of its parent
The most common way to use the clear property is after you have used a float property on an element.

When clearing floats, you should match the clear to the float: If an element is floated to the left, then you should clear to the left. Your floated element will continue to float, but the cleared element will appear below it on the web page.

there is only one difference with you can make change in output1 and output 2 which is clear:right;
