RGB color space
RGB color space or RGB color system, constructs all the colors from the combination of the Red, Green and Blue colors.
The red, green and blue use 8 bits each, which have integer values from 0 to 255. This makes 256*256*256=16777216 possible colors.
Each pixel in the LED monitor displays colors this way, by combination of red, green and blue LEDs (light emitting diodes).
When the red pixel is set to 0, the LED is turned off. When the red pixel is set to 255, the LED is turned fully on.
Any value between them sets the LED to partial light emission.
RGB color format & calculation
RGB code has 24 bits format (bits 0..23):
RED[7:0] | GREEN[7:0] | BLUE[7:0] | |||||||||||||||||||||
23 | 16 | 15 | 8 | 7 | 0 |
RGB = (R*65536)+(G*256)+B , (when R is RED, G is GREEN and B is BLUE)
Calculation examples
White RGB Color
White RGB code = 255*65536+255*256+255 = #FFFFFF
Blue RGB Color
Blue RGB code = 0*65536+0*256+255 = #0000FF
Red RGB Color
Red RGB code = 255*65536+0*256+0 = #FF0000
Green RGB Color
Green RGB code = 0*65536+255*256+0 = #00FF00
Gray RGB Color
Gray RGB code = 128*65536+128*256+128 = #808080
Yellow RGB Color
Yellow RGB code = 255*65536+255*256+0 = #FFFF00

140 HTML colors with HEX, RGB codes and names
With so many colors to choose from, it can be tough to decide which one to use for your website or blog. But with a little help from this list of 140 HTML colors, you can find the perfect color for your next project.
Using an RGB or HEX color code in HTML you can change the color of the text, background, url, font, table or the whole page.
Colors in HTML
The value for the color property can be set in three main ways:
- by color name, for example, red , green , blue
- by hexadecimal number: from #000000 to #ffffff
- by color code in the RGB palette: from rgb (0, 0, 0) to rgb(255, 255, 255)
The name of the color is relatively simple. The only limitation is that we have to choose a color from several predefined options.
The standard set of HTML colors consists of 140 different values. If you need a color that is not represented there, you will need to use a hexadecimal format (HEX code) or RGB.
HEX color codes in HTML
The HEX code always starts with a # followed by a 3-byte hexadecimal number (6 digits in total). Each byte is responsible for the intensity of one of the three primary colors: the first is responsible for the intensity of red, the second for green, and the third for blue:
The value 00 is the lowest intensity, FF is the highest. For example, to get white, you need to “mix” three primary colors with maximum intensity: #FFFFFF . To obtain black, the intensity of all colors should be minimal: #000000 .
— So it’s the same as in the drawing class — to get any color you just need to mix red, blue, and green.
— Exactly. To get the red color, you need to set the maximum value for the byte responsible for the red color, and for the rest — the minimum: ##FF0000 .
— Then for green, the HEX code will be: #00FF00
RGB palette of HTML colors
In the RGB palette, the color is mixed in a similar way by mixing the intensity of red, green, and blue colors. Hence the abbreviation RGB. Only the intensity is set here by numbers 0 from 255, where 0 is the lowest intensity, 255 is the highest. For example, green would look like this: rgb (0, 255, 0) ;
All of these values are suitable for other situations where color is needed, for example, in background-color .

HTML Color Codes Theory
So you are wondering «Does this weird combination of letters and numbers have any meaning?» Well the answer is «Yes» and this is how it goes:)
HTML Codes format:
Each HTML code contains symbol «#» and 6 letters or numbers. These numbers are in hexadecimal numeral system. For example «FF» in hexadecimal represents number 255 in Decimal.
Meaning of symbols:
The first two symbols in HTML color code represents the intensity of red color. 00 is the least and FF is the most intense. The third and fourth represents intensity of green and fifth and sixth represents the intensity of blue. So with combining the intensity of red, green and blue we can mix almost any color that our heart desire;)
Examples:
#FF0000 — With this HTML code we tell browser to show maximum of red and no green and no blue. The result is of course pure red color:
#00FF00 — This HTML code shows just green and no red and blue. The result is:
#0000FF — This HTML code shows just blue and no red and green. The result is:
#FFFF00 — Combination of red and green color gives us yellow:
#CCEEFF — Take some red a bit more of green and maximum of blue to get color of sky:
