Is it really important to remember color codes in hexadecimal notation?

There were a lot of challenges where I got questions on the color in hexadeximal notation. I feel is a waste of energy to remeber those code, one can look them anytime ...

it is hard to remember or know exactly which color from the hexadecimal code, but there are some rules you can depend on, e.g. the syntax is used RGB in sequence so each 2 hex digit used for one color, the greater the code for each color the more possibility to be that color for example below code : (#0fac0f) is more likely to be green, R=0f , G=ac, B=0f, so G > R or B. hope this will help you can test any code combination using color picker in w3 site https://www.w3schools.com/colors/colors_picker.asp

HTML supports many colour names now ... and you can create other colors by using a color picker or <input type="color">. so why remembering these stuffs 😎

remember color codes is an impossible task (unless you're some rainman of colors) and definitely a waste of time. Understanding how it works is definitely not a waste of time. The aim of the challenges I met so far, was towards understanding the concept behind rgb rather than remembering hex color codes.
