Colour notation

  • Colour notation refers to the codes used by colour models to identify and store colour values in a form recognizable to both computers and humans.
  • For example, the RGB colour model uses both decimal and hexadecimal triplets for colour notation. So RGB notation looks like this:
    • R=255, G=128, B=0 is the decimal notation for orange.
    • #FF8000 is the hexadecimal notation for orange.
