The RGB color model is used for specifying colors. This model specifies the intensity of red, green, and blue on a scale of 0 to 255, with 0 (zero) indicating the minimum intensity. The settings of the three colors are converted to a single integer value by using this formula:
RGB value= Red + (Green*256) + (Blue*256*256)
