Color Code of Resistor

[Yehuda]

Hey, guys!

I created a resistor program that calculates resistance from colors, but I'm not sure how to convert resistance to color. Can you assist me with putting this together?

For example, if I enter 100 ohms and a 5% tolerance, the hues brown, black, brown, and gold appear.

That would be the 4-Band representation, then. That 1, 0, *10, 5%.

Maybe this link helps. There's a paragraph "The Standard Resistor Colour Code Chart" that should make it easy to convert.
