Description   Datatype for storing color values. Colors may be assigned with the get and color() functions or they may be specified directly using hexadecimal notation such as #FFCC00. Colors are 32 bits of information ordered as AAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGBBBBBBBB where the A's contain the alpha value, the R's are the red/hue value, G's are green/saturation, and B's are blue/brightness. Color is a datatype unique to Processing.
