Tell us what’s happening:
This particular item needs a much better explanation. Makes no sense as it is.

Your code so far

Thing is you actually need to change the numbers for each color so the colors show up. Right now, it seems all numbers are set to 0. Change those values for the ones corresponding to each color, as detailed in the challenge explanation. It should work.

Thank you for your response.
I’m sorry, I wasn’t at all clear with my question. I meant that the whole subject of secondary colors, tertiary colors and split-complementary color scheme needs much better coverage. But I can find that on the WEB.
