Each parameter (red, green, and blue) defines the intensity of the color as an integer between 0 and 255. Color values take either the form of integers within a certain range, a percentage from 0% to 100%, or a floating point number (float) typically from 0 to 1. Each of the colors takes a value between 0 and 255, a total of 256, with which a total of 256 x 256 x 256 is achieved = 16,777,216 different colors. This makes 256*256*256=16777216 possible colors.
