Making RGB color in Xcode

Question

I am using RGB values of a color from Photoshop and using the same in Xcode the values are Color-R-160 G-97 B-5   the color in Photoshop appears yellowish but in Xcode when I used  myLabel textColor    UIColor colorWithRed 160 green 97 blue 5 alpha 1      the color appears whitish   Why this difference is happening

Yeah ios supports RGB valur to range between 0 and 1 only  its close Range  0 1

The values are determined by the bit of the image  8 bit 0 to 255  16 bit   some ridiculous number  0 to 65 000 approx   32 bit are 0 to 1  I use  004 with 32 bit images   this gives 1 02 as a result when multiplied by 255

Objective-C  You have to give the values between 0 and 1 0  So divide the RGB values by 255   myLabel textColor   UIColor colorWithRed  160 255 0  green  97 255 0  blue  5 255 0  alpha 1      Update   You can also use this macro   define Rgb2UIColor r  g  b    UIColor colorWithRed   r    255 0  green   g    255 0  blue   b    255 0  alpha 1 0    and you can call in any of your class like this   myLabel textColor   Rgb2UIColor 160  97  5     Swift  This is the normal color synax  myLabel textColor   UIColor red   160 255 0   green   97 255 0   blue   5 255 0   alpha  1 0     The values should be between 0 to 1   Swift is not much friendly with macros     Complex macros are used in C and Objective-C but have no counterpart   in Swift  Complex macros are macros that do not define constants    including parenthesized  function-like macros  You use complex macros   in C and Objective-C to avoid type-checking constraints or to avoid   retyping large amounts of boilerplate code  However  macros can make   debugging and refactoring difficult  In Swift  you can use functions   and generics to achieve the same results without any compromises    Therefore  the complex macros that are in C and Objective-C source   files are not made available to your Swift code    So we use extension for this  extension UIColor       convenience init   r  Double   g  Double   b  Double   a  Double            self init red  r 255  green  g 255  blue  b 255  alpha  a            You can use it like  myLabel textColor   UIColor 160 0  97 0  5 0  1 0

You already got the right answer  but if you dislike the UIColor interface like me  you can do this    import  UIColor Helper h         myLabel textColor    UIColor colorWithRGBA 0xA06105FF     UIColor Helper h    import  lt UIKit UIKit h gt    interface UIColor  Helper     UIColor   colorWithRGBA  NSUInteger color   end   UIColor Helper m    import  UIColor Helper h    implementation UIColor  Helper      UIColor   colorWithRGBA  NSUInteger color       return  UIColor colorWithRed   color  gt  gt  24   amp  0xFF    255 0f                            green   color  gt  gt  16   amp  0xFF    255 0f                             blue   color  gt  gt  8   amp  0xFF    255 0f                            alpha   color   amp  0xFF    255 0f       end
