I am playing around with the Less Framework 3 and I saw this line in the css:

body {
    padding: 60px 42px 0;
    width: 396px;
}

what does padding: 0 do?

This does not look like normal css shorthand, and top-right-bottom seems weird.

    The padding and margin properties specify top right bottom left.
    If left is omitted, it will default to right.

    Thus, padding: a b c is equivalent to padding: a b c b.

    If bottom is also omitted, it will default to top.
    Thus, padding: a b is equivalent to padding: a b a b.

    If right is also omitted, the single value is used for all 4 sides.
    Thus, padding: a is equivalent to padding: a a a a.
