The conjecture was first proposed in 1852 when Francis Guthrie, while trying to color the map of counties of England, noticed that only four different colors were needed.

If the four-color conjecture were false, there would be at least one map with the smallest possible number of regions that requires five colors.

If this were the restriction, planar graphs would require arbitrarily large numbers of colors.

When words can be used in a more fresh and primitive way so that they strike with the force of sights and sounds, when tones of sound and colors of paint and the carven shape all strike the sensibilities with an undeniable force of data in and of themselves, compelling the observer into an attitude of attention, all this imitates the way experience itself in its deepest character strikes upon the door of consciousness and clamors for entrance.

( This makes a contrast with whiteness, the impression of any combination of colors of light that equally stimulates all three types of color-sensitive visual receptors.

A black pigment can, however, result from a combination of several pigments that collectively absorb all colors.

Black is the lack of all colors of light, or an exhaustive combination of multiple colors of pigment.

But, particularly in the United States and Canada, the racial or ethnic classification also refers to people with all possible kinds of skin pigmentation from the darkest through to the very lightest skin colors, including albinos, if they are believed by others to have African ancestry, or to exhibit cultural traits associated with being " African-American ".

In all of these cases in nature, the same brilliant iridescence ( or play of colors ) can be attributed to the diffraction and constructive interference of visible lightwaves that satisfy Bragg ’ s law, in a matter analogous to the scattering of X-rays in crystalline solids.

Almost all flat panels have a perfectly rectangular array of square pixels, each of which contains three rectangular subpixels in the three primary colors, with the normal ordering being red, green, and blue, arranged in vertical bands.

She may grow up learning all about the scientific facts of colors, but has no way of experiences colors other than black or white.

Much research in graph theory was motivated by attempts to prove that all maps, like this one, could be graph coloring | colored with four color theorem | only four colors.

* Full texture mapping of all surfaces – in Wolfenstein 3D, floors and ceilings are flat colors ;

could be naturally identified with the set of all car colors.

This map then requires five colors, since the two A regions together are contiguous with four other regions, each of which is contiguous with all the others.

If all four neighbors of v are different colors, say red, green, blue, and yellow in clockwise order, we look for an alternating path of vertices colored red and blue joining the red and blue neighbors.

Explore all vertices attached to the red neighbor by red-blue alternating paths, and then reverse the colors red and blue on all these vertices.

Daylight, often called white light, is actually all of the colors of the spectrum combined.

A ruby appears red because it absorbs all the other colors of white light ( green and blue ), while reflecting the red.

In the 7-color modes, the sprites and backgrounds were given separate color schemes, and in the 10-color modes the sprites were further split into two differently-colored groups ; however, as flat black ( or white ) was a shared fourth color in all but one ( 7-color ) palette, the overall effect was that of 4, 6 or 8 colors.

For the purpose of quick identification in all of these, heraldry distinguishes only seven basic colors and makes no fine distinctions in the precise size or placement of charges on the field.

Most Lomographic cameras are designed to produce photographic effects such as " oversaturated colors, extreme optical distortions, rainbow-colored subjects, off-kilter exposure, blurring and alternative film processing, all things usually considered bad in photography.
