Specifying Color Names and Color Codes
There are two ways to specify colors:
• Use a color value, a six digit hexadecimal number known as the red-green-blue
(RGB) triplet. The RGB triplet always begins with a hash mark (#) followed by
3 2-digit codes that represent the amount of red, green, and blue that make up
the color (#rrggbb). There are over 16 million RGB color codes.
• Use a color name. There are sixteen standard case-insensitive color names.
Table 6-4 lists the sixteen standard color names and their equivalent RGB
values.
