last paragraph

" ...The values of the parameters are in the range of 0 to
255, where 255 is white, 128 is medium gray, and 0 is black.
Figure 3-3 shows how the values from 0 to 255 map to different
gray levels.".

But it is not consistent with the actual diagram on page 24 .( Figure 3-3. Colors are created by defining RGB (red, green, blue) values)

Note from the Author or Editor:
The first edition was printed in black and white and the figure was updated to use color for the second edition. The text wasn't correctly updated. I think this is the best fix, to change the text:

"The values of the parameters are in the range of 0 to 255 for the red, green, and blue (RGB) values of the colors. Figure 3-3 shows how some values from 0 to 255 map to different colors."
