**A good way to remember the order of the colors is to note that the first letters of the colors spell out the name ROY G. BIV. Roy G. Biv is a popular mnemonic device used for memorizing the traditional optical spectrum:
Red
Orange
Yellow
Green
Blue
Indigo
Violet
The colors are arranged in the order of decreasing wavelengths, with red being about 700 nanometers and violet being about 400 nm.In Great Britain schoolchildren are taught the mnemonic Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain. Another popular mnemonic is Ring Out Your Great Bells In Victory.
In other places, the visible spectrum of light is easily remembered by the acronym VIBGYOR.
"Roygbiv" is the name of a song by Boards of Canada on their album Music Has The Right To Children.
**ROY G BIV IS ALSO Richmond's premier dancable classic rock cover band founded in 2000,which changed their name into PLAN B.♥
