how do i reset a iPhone se

How do I do a factory reset on an iPhone SE that I don't have the code for. I tried several times and now it says hook up to iTunes but my Mac doesn't have it. It has Catalina.

iPhone SE, iOS 12

If you can't update or restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - You can put your iOS device into recovery mode, then restore it using Music/iTunes.

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support - "A factory restore erases the information and settings on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod and installs the latest version of iOS or iPod software." This uses a computer.
