There are five principal and five intermediate positioned hue steps within this scale. The hue notation in general use is based on the 10 major hue names: Red (5R), Yellow-Red (5YR), Yellow (5Y), Green-Yellow (5GY), Green (5G), Blue-Green (5BG), Blue (5B), Purple-Blue (5PB), Purple (5P), and Red-Purple (5RP). The VALUE (V) notation indicates the lightness or darkness of a color in relation to a neutral gray scale, which extends from absolute black (value symbol 0/) to absolute white (value symbol 10/).
