There are an infinite number of "rays of light". We have arbitrary "groupings" that cover ranges of wavelenght / energy: # radio waves, low energy, long wavelength # micro waves, wavelength near 1 meter # infrared light, wavelengths bigger than a cell # visible light, wavelengths near the size of molecules # UV light # X-rays # gamma rays
