 * Resistors are small - so small in fact that if you printed the resistance value on them, it would be hard to read.
 To get around this problem, manufacturers print color-coded bands onto the resistors to denote their resistance values. Each band has a position and a numeric value. For example, if they printed a brown band (value 1) followed by a green band (value 5), it would translate to the number 15.
 
-In this exercise, you are going to create a helpful program so that you don't have to remember the values of the bands. The program will take two colors as input, and output the correct number.
+In this exercise you are going to create a helpful program so that you don't have to remember the values of the bands. The program will take color names as input and output a two digit number, even if the input is more than two colors!
 
 The colors are mapped to the numbers from 0 to 9 in the sequence:
 Black - Brown - Red - Orange - Yellow - Green - Blue - Violet - Grey - White
+
+From the example above:
+brown-green should return 15
+brown-green-violet should return 15 too, ignoring the third color.
