In computing, colors are defined by an RGB triplet (red, green, blue). In the HTML language, this triplet is quoted with the character # (hash) followed by 6 hexadecimal characters (0-9a-f). The 6 characters correspond to 3 pairs of 2 characters, respectively encoding the values of red, green and blue (RGB or RGB in English) via a hexadecimal code (between 00 and ff = 255)
Example: #ff007f corresponds to ff (255) red, 00 green and 7f (127) blue. This mixture corresponds to the color Rose
A variant in the writing of HTML color codes is allowed: a code with 3 characters, one for red, one for green, one for blue (instead of 2 for each). This limits the number of available values (16 values per color instead of 256), but has the advantage of reducing the write size. To get a long code, double each character.
Example: '# f70' matches f (ff: 255) red, 7 (77 => 119) green and 0 blue. This mixture corresponds to an orange color
Hexadecimal writing is not very readable for an untrained person, so a list of common colors (in English) has been defined to be used.
Example: color=black to display black
It is possible to write 256^3=16777216 colors, these 16 million colors do not all have a name, only a few have benefited from an alphabetical code.
