+### colorize
+
+Add special characters to text to print in color in the console (combined with `console.log()`).
+
+Use template literals and special characters to add the appropriate color code to the string output.
+For background colors, add a special character that resets the background color at the end of the string.
+
+```js
+const colorize = (...args) => (
+  {
+    black: `\x1b[30m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    red: `\x1b[31m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    green: `\x1b[32m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    yellow: `\x1b[33m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    blue: `\x1b[34m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    magenta: `\x1b[35m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    cyan: `\x1b[36m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    white: `\x1b[37m${args.join(' ')}`,
+    bgBlack : `\x1b[40m${args.join(' ')}\x1b[0m`,
+    bgRed : `\x1b[41m${args.join(' ')}\x1b[0m`,
+    bgGreen : `\x1b[42m${args.join(' ')}\x1b[0m`,

+    bgWhite : `\x1b[47m${args.join(' ')}\x1b[0m`
+  }
+)
+```
+
+```js
+console.log(colorize('foo').red); // 'foo' (red letters)
+console.log(colorize('foo','bar').bgBlue); // 'foo bar' (blue background)
+console.log(colorize(colorize('foo').yellow, colorize('foo').green).bgWhite); // 'foo bar' (first word in yellow letters, second word in green letters, white background for both)
