Each laptop and portable digital gadgets help the RGB coloration version. RGB stands for purple, green and Blue and bests these three colorings are used to breed all different shades for virtual canvas. Hex coloration code is 6 digit color code prefixed with a hash (#) which holds the digital shade statistics. Hex color code has statistics in a completely sequential manner.
Hex shade code holds the numerical values from zero to 9 and alphabetical values from A to F, where zero resembles color (Darkness) and F resembles Tint (Brightness).

As the charts above show the intensity of brightness and hue increases from 0 to F and decreases in the opposite way. Color code #000000 depicts the depletion of hue and complete darkness while color code #FFFFFF depicts an increase in hue and brightness. In the hex color code, the first two digits stand for Red channel, third and fourth stands for Green channel and the last two digits stand for the Blue channel.
Let’s assume the six digits as Red Major, Red Minor, Green Major, Green Minor, Blue Major, and Blue Minor. Major digit decides whether the resulting color is going to be a tone of Red, Green or Blue; and minor digit decides tint or shade of that color. Digits with a higher value are more bright and saturated while digits with lower values are dark and desaturated.

A hex shade code #3F51B5 will bring about the shade of Blue, as the Blue primary digit has a maximum brightest price in evaluation with red and green primary. An example may be seen in the graphical illustration below-
