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 truth, since the spectrum is a continuum, the selecting or omitting of individual colors in a list of representative colors is arbitrary. The traditional inclusion of the color indigo is attributed to Isaac Newton, who wanted the number of colors in his spectrum to come out to seven to match the number of days in the week, the number of notes in the musical scale, and the number of known planets.[1] He also sometimes listed as few as five colors, omitting both indigo and orange.[2]
A traditional way of recalling each of the seven traditional colours in sequence is by using the mnemonic "Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain", where the first letter of each word corresponds to the first letter of each colour. The mnemonic probably alludes to the defeat and death of Richard, Duke of York at the Battle of Wakefield, a battle Richard had himself started, although it could also refer to the defeat of Richard III, the last Yorkist king, at the Battle of Bosworth Field. In York, an alternative version is taught that goes "Rowntrees Of York Gave Best In Value", referring to the confectionery Rowntrees. Another, less obvious, though more common way is the use of the meaningless name Roy G. Biv or ROYGBIV. This method is purely phonetic. Some humorous examples also exist, including "Ring Out Your Granny's Boots In Vinegar".
