On the Subject of Colour Flash
It’s easy to identify colours. Red, Blue, Green, etc. Turns out it’s a bit harder when you display a word colour in a different colour though...
- A colour flash module will repeatedly flash a sequence of 8 different words representing colours in different colours.
- The possible colours are Red, Yellow, Green, Blue, Magenta and White.
- There is also a Yes button and a No button on the module.
- Only one of the Yes and No buttons needs to be pressed to disarm the module, but must be pressed at the correct time according to the rules below.
- The colour of the last word in the sequence determines which set of rules to follow below.
- Follow the rules from the top-most rule down to the bottom-most rule for the block that applies to your module.
