We'll start with the basics of color.
You have..

Hue: The closest pure color that matches up with the color you have at hand.

Value( or lightness): How light or dark a color, literally a scale between white or black.

Chroma(or saturation): A measure of how close that color is to neutral grey or the strongest hue possible for that color.

These are generally how you will measure color.

The photo I linked shows you the entire color spectrum in a 3d model.

Up and down gives you lightness.
From the center, and towards the center gives you Chroma.
Hue is a bit hard to see, but if you imagine viewing it from the top. The central axis revolves to determine hue.
