If you split white light in a prism you will get a spectrum of colours - Red, orange yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet - and you will see that they merge into each other. Each colour has a different wave length and as wavelength is a continuous (as in not discrete) variable then you could argue that there are an infinite number of colours.
To confuse you even more we can also see colours because they are a mix of different wavelengths. Your computer screen can only produce the colours red, green and blue but it produces them with different intensities to produce a certan colour.
You also need to remember that that is just what healthy human eyes see - other species can see wavelengths beyond what we can.

What are primary colors of light?
This Q&A is about light colours. Paint colours are substances, and different from light colours.If you hold up a glass prism to a beam of sunlight, you'll see the light form a rainbow of colours. This is called the spectrum. It consists of all the colours that make up "white" light.Although you might be able to see seven colours in the spectrum, the white light is really made up of three basic colours. These are called the primary colours because they cannot be made from any other colours. The primary colours of light are red-orange, green, and violet blue. The other colours you see in spectrums or rainbows are made by a mixture of the primary colours.When the naked eye looks at the spectrum, it can see three mixed colours, which are called secondary colours. The secondary colours in light are green-blue, yellow, and magenta-red. You can produce these colours by mixing the primary colours in certain combinations.
