title: what does bad color sequence mean in python turtle?
body: <p>I am using python turtle for a project where I need turtle to draw characters. However, when I try to use the RGB value for a color, I keep getting an error message. The input is:</p>
  <pre><code>turtle.color((151,2,1))
  </code></pre>
  <p>followed by a series of movements. However, when I run the program I get this message:</p>
  <pre><code>File &quot;C:/Users/Larry/Desktop/tests.py&quot;, line 5, in center
  turtle.color((151,2,1))
  File &quot;&lt;string&gt;&quot;, line 1, in color
  File &quot;C:\Python33\lib\turtle.py&quot;, line 2208, in color
  pcolor = self._colorstr(pcolor)
  File &quot;C:\Python33\lib\turtle.py&quot;, line 2688, in _colorstr
  return self.screen._colorstr(args)
  File &quot;C:\Python33\lib\turtle.py&quot;, line 1158, in _colorstr
  raise TurtleGraphicsError(&quot;bad color sequence: %s&quot; % str(color))
  turtle.TurtleGraphicsError: bad color sequence: (151, 2, 1)
  </code></pre>
  <p>What does this mean, and how can I fix it?</p>
