With Macs you have multiple options. The first being much easier than a typical Windows PC.
1) Boot into Recovery mode (Cmd + R), then use Internet Recovery [1] to install OS X. This works even if your HDD or SSD is completely blank. All Macs from around mid-2010 onwards are supported. [2]
2) Download the latest OS X installer from the Mac App Store, then either use the bundled 'createinstallmedia' command-line app to create a bootable USB flash drive [2] or a third-party app called DiskMaker X [3].
