The header file graphics.h contains getbkcolor() function which returns the current background color.

Syntax :

int getbkcolor();

As getbkcolor() returns an integer value corresponding to the background color, so below is the table for Color values.
Colors Table :

First of all read all requirements and enlist all functions and header files which is necessary to perform all functions.

#include<conio.h>

 // Used for getch

#include<stdlib.h>

//  Use for  exit (0)

#include<stdio.h>

 // Use for sprintf

#include<graphics.h>

 // Use for loading graphic driver

#include<dos.h>

 // Use for delay

void main()

{

int gd=DETECT,gm;

char ch[5];    

 // we use character array because we want to display counter

//at specific position on screen. That's why we convert int to character

initgraph(&gd,&gm,"..//bgi");

for(int i=10,j=5;i>=0,j<=14;i--,j++)

//for changing background color and counter

{

sprintf(ch,"%d",i);   

//covert counter numbers to character

//if we don't covert int to character then outtextxy give error

setcolor(i);       

//text color

setbkcolor(j);       

//background color

settextstyle(i,HORIZ_DIR,6);  

//text style, direction and size

outtextxy(250,200,ch);  

//display counter at specific position on screen

delay(1000); 

//delay to display movement

cleardevice();

}

exit(0);

getch();

closegraph();

}
