---+Color Frequency Counter
---++ Objectives
   1. Learn about arrays
---++ Assignment
   1. Create a clean program that will count the number of occurrences of each color and display the result on the screen. The idea is that each "pixel" is a color.  Your robot is to go in a line counting the number of pixels of each color and then output the counts of each.  Your robot should stop when it touches a "wall".
      a. Each pixel will be about one inch square.  
      a. Pixels of the same color may be next to each other.
---++Suggestions
      a. Start just by counting the number of times you encounter one specific color.  This can be done without an array and will get you started.
      a. Then create seven variables (one for each color) and do it for all colors
      a. Then use an array with just one element.  Use black (index of 1) and just count the number of times you encounter black.
      a. Then add blue to your colors and two elements in the array
      a. Finally make it so that your array has seven elements (one for each color)
      a. Stop when you touch something
   1. Additional requirements
      a. The final version must use an array to store the counts for each color
