F is the most "on" a color channel can be.
0 is the most "off" a color channel can be.

The color channels are: R G B (red, green, blue) and the color mixing is additive. So as you add color, you get closer to white.

In short hand white is: #FFF and black is #000.
Red: #F00
Green: #0F0
Blue: #00F
Yellow: #FF0
Purplish: #F0F

Etc.
