Resistors have color coded bands, where each color maps to a number. The first 2 bands of a resistor have a simple encoding scheme: each color maps to a single number.
These colors are encoded as follows:
- Black: 0
- Brown: 1
- Red: 2
- Orange: 3
- Yellow: 4
- Green: 5
- Blue: 6
- Violet: 7
- Grey: 8
- White: 9
Mnemonics map the colors to the numbers, that, when stored as an array, happen to map to their index in the array: Better Be Right Or Your Great Big Values Go Wrong.
More information on the color encoding of resistors can be found in the Electronic color code Wikipedia article
You can run all the tests for an exercise by entering the following in your terminal:
$ gradle test
Use
gradlew.bat
if you're on Windows
In the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.
Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by removing the @Ignore("Remove to run test")
annotation.
Your goal is to complete the implementation and pass all the provided tests.
