Each number should has a maximum value of 255.The fact that I have a test in school today, and this is probable questiom in it, and this post reminded me of it, thanks I guess?

anyway thanks again for the unsolicited coincidental heads up
I'm still angry even 15 years later after a teacher lowered my grade just because I checked "USB" as capable technologies for video transmission. There are literally USB monitors.
Granted, back then it really wasn't popular and bandwidth was shit, but it was capable of it.
USB to VGA dongles were definitely a thing over 15 years ago. USB 2.0 could manage it fineish. Maybe not at high resolutions and refresh rates, but it could handle a monitor just fine.
