Colors are classified as primary, secondary and tertiary colors. Primary colors are those that cannot be generated by mixing of any other color. There are three primary colors: red, blue and yellow. These primary colors can be mixed to generate secondary colors. There are three secondary colors: purple, orange and green. The secondary colors are a result of mixing any two primary colors - red and yellow yield orange, and yellow and blue generate green. Tertiary colors are a result of mixing primary and secondary colors. Some examples of tertiary colors are yellow-orange, blue-purple, blue-green, etc. The tertiary colors are named by writing the primary color first and then secondary color, separated by a hash (for example, red + purple = red-purple).
Hope this helps.
