==Distinction among indigo, azure, and cyan== {{Disputed section|date=September 2021}} According to the logic of the [[:File:RGB color wheel.svg|RGB color wheel]], [[indigo]] colors are those colors with hue codes between 255 and 225 (degrees), azure colors are those colors with hue codes between 195 and 225, and cyan colors are those colors with hue codes between 165 and 195. Another way of describing it could be that cyan is a mixture of blue and green light, azure is a mixture of blue and cyan light, and indigo is a mixture of blue and violet light. All of the colors shown below in the section ''shades of azure'' are referenced as having a [[HSV color space|hue]] between 195 and 225 degrees, with the exception of the very pale [[X11 color names|X11]] web color azure β RGB (240, 255, 255) β which, with a hue of 180 degrees, is a tone of [[cyan]], but follows the artistic meaning of azure as sky blue.
