We can see about 10 million colours though computer systems use 16.8 million. But we can see each colour in many different ways (different lighting consitions etc. so 18 decillion could be a good estimate.

(that title is driving me mad)

Depending on the lighting, and basically whatever, there must be countless colours. Heaps... Insane amounts...

Depends how in-depth you go.

I mean, there could be hundreds of red-orange shades...

Shouldn't we be talking about hues? I thought the color was the name.

If you took the mathematical approach then there exists an infinite number of colors.

However like Pixie said there are only so many colors that can be differentiated using the human eye.

He's British.

There are millions of unique colors.

But we can see each colour in many different ways (different lighting consitions etc. so 18 decillion could be a good estimate.


18 decillion is a mind boggling number.
