+# Resistor Colors
+
+If you want to build something using a Raspberry Pi, you'll probably use _resistors_. For this exercise, you need to know two things about them:
+
+* Each resistor has a resistance value.
+* 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 acts as a digit of a number. 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.
+
+The band colors are encoded as follows:
+
+- Black: 0
+- Brown: 1
+- Red: 2
+- Orange: 3
+- Yellow: 4
+- Green: 5
+- Blue: 6
+- Violet: 7
+- Grey: 8
+- White: 9
+
+## Setup
+
+Go through the setup instructions for Javascript to
+install the necessary dependencies:
+
+[https://exercism.io/tracks/javascript/installation](https://exercism.io/tracks/javascript/installation)
+
+## Requirements
+
+Install assignment dependencies:
+
+```bash
+$ npm install
+```
+
+## Making the test suite pass
+
+Execute the tests with:
+
+```bash
+$ npm test
+```
+
+In the test suites all tests but the first have been skipped.
+
+Once you get a test passing, you can enable the next one by
+changing `xtest` to `test`.
+
+## Submitting Incomplete Solutions
+
+It's possible to submit an incomplete solution so you can see how others have completed the exercise.
