Hello xc700116,

If have a recent Mac, you can use OS X Recovery to reinstall OS X.

Turn on your Mac.
Immediately after you hear the startup sound, hold the Command and R keys on your keyboard.
Release the keys after the Apple logo appears.
If prompted, select a Wi-Fi network, or connect your Mac to the Internet using an Ethernet cable.
After the Recovery menu appears, select the option to Install OS X.
Follow the onscreen prompts to select your destination disk and install OS X.
