<p>The physics behind how we perceive colour is incredibly interesting, but also complex. Humans have developed a broad range of names of colours to identify categories like “red” in everyday language.<label for="sn-0" class="margin-toggle sidenote-number"></label><input type="checkbox" id="sn-0" class="margin-toggle"/><span class="sidenote"> Although the names we use for colours vary widely from language to language!</span> Yet these categories can be fairly broad and imprecise; useful for everyday communication, but not for computer graphics and design. So in this section, well learn about how computers represent colour data.</p>

</p>
<p>Mathematics can help us represent colours by a combination of numbers; the rules for how numbers map to colours is called a <em>colour model</em>. Many colour models exist, but one of the most common is the <em>RGB colour model</em>. At some point in your youth, you may have discovered that mixing two colours together (i.e., with paint, crayons, etc.) produces a different colour. The RGB colour model is based on the same idea: each colour is represented by three numbers, one for the “amount” of red, green, and blue to be mixed together.</p>
<p>A common form of the RGB colour model in a computer is called the <strong>RGB24</strong> colour model, and allows for each of the red, green, and blue amounts to be a number between 0 and 255, inclusive.<label for="sn-1" class="margin-toggle sidenote-number"></label><input type="checkbox" id="sn-1" class="margin-toggle"/><span class="sidenote"> Though RGB24 is quite common, software like Photoshop allow for a larger range of numbers, enabling more granularity it their colour representations. You can look up the term <em>deep colour</em> to find out more about more sophisticated colour models</span> Formally, we can define the set <span class="math inline">\(S = \{0, 1, \dots, 255\}\)</span> and <span class="math inline">\(\mathcal{C}\)</span> to be the set of all possible colours in the universe. Then the RGB colour model is a function <span class="math inline">\(RGB_{24}: S \times S \times S \to \mathcal{C}\)</span> that takes in red, green, and blue values from <span class="math inline">\(S\)</span> and returns a colour. This <span class="math inline">\(RGB_{24}\)</span> function is <em>one-to-one</em>, as every combination of (red, green, blue) values produces a different colour.</p>

<h3 id="colours-in-python">Colours in Python</h3>
<p>The RGB24 colour model translates naturally to Python: we represent a colour value as a tuple of three integers, where each integer is between 0 and 255, inclusive. For example, we can use <code>(0, 0, 0)</code> to represent a pure black, and <code>(181, 57, 173)</code> to represent a shade of purple. Of course, just representing these values as tuples doesnt automatically make them colours:</p>
<div class="sourceCode" id="cb1"><pre class="sourceCode python"><code class="sourceCode python"><span id="cb1-1"><a href="#cb1-1"></a><span class="op">&gt;&gt;&gt;</span> (<span class="dv">181</span>, <span class="dv">57</span>, <span class="dv">173</span>) <span class="co"># This tuple evaluates to... itself</span></span>
<span id="cb1-2"><a href="#cb1-2"></a>(<span class="dv">181</span>, <span class="dv">57</span>, <span class="dv">173</span>)</span></code></pre></div>
<p>But as youll see in your first tutorial this year, we can pass these tuples to operations that expect colour values, and get remarkable results.</p>
