The code is called "RBG Hexadecimal Code" because the first two numbers/letters are the codes for Red, the next two are for Blue, the last for Green.  For example:

RED=        FF
BLUE=      CC
GREEN=   99
 
 

	which is code "#FFCC99".	One more example is:
	which is code "#993300"	or the RBG values below.

 

RED=        99
BLUE=      33
GREEN=   00

More than you need (or want) to know.

For those of you who must know more and like to know all the minute details.

Counting in hexadecimal is easy, once you understand how it works.

Here are the numbers 0-9 in Hexadecimal format.
 

Here are the numbers 10-19 in Hexadecimal format.
 

The number 10 gives us the hexadecimal value of 0A.  Counting all the way up to 255 yields FF in the hexadecimal format.

This counting is of help to you because when you see the number #0AFFCC you will know to expect a greenish-blue color because of the high green and blue numbers compared to the lower red value.  In fact, here it is. 

 The code #6E17A5 has high red and blue values so you get a purple color.  

Well, I hope that helps you a little bit.  When you turn in your first pages, I'm sure I'll see lots of colors!
