TCS34725 color sensor code

Projects Programming

Im green at programming~!~ Using and Arduino Uno and Adafruit TCS34725

This is the code I am using for the color sensor, I CANNOT get the LED to come on or change colors.
When I monitor the serial monitor I do get data, but what I am seeing is C: R: G: B: and a code at end.

What I would like to see is what is shown online with

Color Temp: Lux: R: G: B: C:

as shown on page

I do see something in the library reference
for a string like this
Adafruit_TCS34725 tcs = Adafruit_TCS34725(TCS34725_INTEGRATIONTIME_50MS, TCS34725_GAIN_4X);

But I need the correct code for a string like this
uint16_t Adafruit_TCS34725::calculateColorTemperature(uint16_t r, uint16_t g, uint16_t b)

Calculates the color temperature from the Red, Green and Blue components.

I have checked all wiring etc and everything is wired correctly.

thanks very much in advance for your help.
