Do you think, these questions are stupid?

Question

In HTML Challange, there are some absolutely idiot questions about the color codes. For example: "What is this color: #FF0505 ?" I mean, who knows these colors without any help? I think these questions should not be here. Maybe only i think this, what do You think about it?

Answer 1

If you know that the format of html colors is red/green/blue then the rest is easy to calculate for simple questions like that. A full value of FF for red, with a small value of green and blue gives you a shade of red...

Answer 2

IMHO it is still better to understand how is that code generated and how hex colours work

Answer 3

For who doesn't know how the hex values of color works , it's quite hard, But the logic is simple.

The fist two hex values represent red, 2 middle ones the green, and the 2 last ones blue. knowing that hex values start from 0, and go to F, we can say that the minimum for each color value is 00, and the maximum FF.

so we have all red (FF) almost nothing green and blue (05 05).. that gives you a slightly changed shade of red.

Answer 4

You are right, but these type of questions are not about HTML knowledge. Really, who uses colorcodes without colorpicker or something like that? Except few people, everybody uses colorpalettes. I think.

Answer 5

Yes, better to learn it, but it not necessary. You can live without it.

Answer 6

i agree with you, @Akos. It's easier to remember by picking on a color picker, or even using rgb/rbga . I personally made a color picker using rgb, and hex values at the same time to make it easier 😂
