Force Quit Application on Mac

CTRL + ALT + DEL on Mac

I just hit CTRL + ALT + DEL whenever I get frozen on Windows PC, but what to do to when it happens on Mac? what is equivalent to CTRL + ALT + DEL on Mac?

Hit ‘command’ + ‘option’ + ‘esc’ simultaneously on keyboard, it’ll pops up ‘Force Quit Applications’ window then force quite the stalled application.
