To write an RGB color in Python, use the `rgb()` function from libraries like `Pillow` or `matplotlib`. For example, in `matplotlib`: `import matplotlib.pyplot as plt; plt.plot(x, y, color=(1.0, 0.0, 0.0))` where (1.0, 0.0, 0.0) is the RGB notation for red. Replace these values with desired RGB values between 0 and 1.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What is RGB color notation? RGB color notation represents colors using the values of red, green, and blue, each ranging from 0 to 255 in traditional applications or 0 to 1 in libraries like Matplotlib.
  2. How do I install the Pillow library in Python? You can install the Pillow library using pip with the command: `pip install Pillow`.
  3. Can I use RGB values greater than 1 in Python? In Python libraries like Matplotlib, RGB values must be in the range of 0 to 1. For other applications, values can be between 0 and 255.
