# # Resistor/Capacitor Color Code System
***codename***: `tictac`
## ;F
# 1\. Color Key
**Logic:** Similar to standard resistor bands (1-8), but **Black** is stolen for the Decimal Point, **White** becomes 0, and **Indigo** is 9.
| **Color** | **Value** | **Hex** | **Swatch** |
|---|---|---|---|
| **White** | **0** | #FFFFFF | ⚪ |
| **Black** | **.** | #000000 | ⚫ |
| **Brown** | **1** | #996633 | 🟤 |
| **Red** | **2** | #FF0000 | 🔴 |
| **Orange** | **3** | #FF9900 | 🟠 |
| **Yellow** | **4** | #FFFF00 | 🟡 |
| **Green** | **5** | #00FF00 | 🟢 |
| **Blue** | **6** | #0000FF | 🔵 |
| **Violet** | **7** | #FF00FF | 🟣 |
| **Grey** | **8** | #CCCCCC | 🔘 |
| **Indigo** | **9** | #4B0082 | 😈 |
# 2\. Reading Order
**Rule:** Start in either corner marked "Start", then sequence the values in a **clockwise** motion until you have 3 numbers and a decimal.
| | | |
|---|---|---|
| **Start** | 4 | 1 |
| 2 | 3 | 2 |
| 1 | 4 | **Start** |
# 3\. Examples
### Example A: 100nF (100.)
*Reading Sequence: Brown (1) → White (0) → White (0) → Black (.)*
| | | |
|---|---|---|
| ❌ | ⚫ | 🟤 |
| ⚪ | ⚪ | ⚪ |
| 🟤 | ⚫ | ❌ |
### Example B: 0.10uF (0.10)
*Reading Sequence: White (0) → Black (.) → Brown (1) → White (0)*
*(Note: This example is rotated 90°)*
| | | |
|---|---|---|
| ⚪ | ⚫ | ❌ |
| ⚪ | 🟤 | ⚪ |
| ❌ | ⚫ | ⚪ |
# 4\. Guide & Syntax Notes
* **Corner Markers:** The two "Start" corners will always be transparent (or marked with X in diagrams). If you are uncertain, check the contrast against the background.
* **Syntax vs. Math:** This encoding is purely syntactical.
* 100nF looks different than 0.1uF.
* This is intentional to preserve original formatting.
* **Toddler Proof:** You don't need to memorize the values to distinguish components; you only need to match the colors.
* **The Deviations:**
* Standard resistor bands are used for **1-8**.
* **Black** is the **Decimal Point** (instead of 0).
* **White** is **0** (instead of 9).
* **Indigo** is **9**.
