My program is here
When I run the program, I enter in a few colors, usually blue, green, yellow typed like that. When it gets to the end it prints out "Random color for band 1 is e" instead of something like "Random color for band 1 is Green" I created a new program here using just a little bit of the code from the two sections below and it seems to work fine but I can't find what is making it print just one letter instead of the whole word.
Lines 76-99
