# `PgRGB`

`PgRGB` -- represents colors as combinations of red, green, and blue.

## Syntax

    PgRGB (red, green, blue)

## Arguments

`red`

  A number 0-255 decimal (0x00-0xff hex) representing the red component of the color.

`green`

  A number 0-255 decimal (0x00-0xff hex) representing the green component of the color.

`blue`

  A number 0-255 decimal (0x00-0xff hex) representing the blue component of the color.

## Returns

A 24-bit color in the range 0x0 - 0xffffff that represents the combination of the passed args using the RGB color model.

## Description

The RGB color model is the most familiar since it uses additive color combinations. As it is based on light, the lowest value is (0,0,0), or black (no light, no color); and the highest value is (255,255,255), or white (a combination of all colors).

## Example

        Gamma> WHITE = PgRGB(255,255,255);
        0xffffff
        Gamma> YELLOW = PgRGB(0,255,255);
        0xffff
        Gamma> ORANGE = PgRGB(255,165,0);
        0xffa500
        Gamma> RED = PgRGB(255,0,0);
        0xff0000
        Gamma> MAGENTA = PgRGB(255,0,255);
        0xff00ff
        Gamma> BLUE = PgRGB(0,0,255);
        0xff
        Gamma> GREEN = PgRGB(0,255,0);
        0xff00
        Gamma> BLACK = PgRGB(0,0,0);
        0x0
