matching colors

greatsoccerman (19)
I have to write a program for school that displays a random sequence of colored squares, each square is a different color. Then the squares disappear and the 5 more pop up at the bottom. The user has to guess which color was first, second, and so on. They click on the squares on the bottom that matches the first square on the top.

My question is how do you get the computer to say ok this square (that the user clicked on) matches this square here.

is there a command that says something like if this color matches this color?
I am completely lost on how to do this.

this is the code so far that I have. I just don't know how to make the program recognize that the user did click on the correct color square.

example when the random colors come up if red is the first one.
When your selections come up red maybe the 3rd square in the sequence

how do I get it where you click on the red square it knows that the red square was first in the randomly gernerated squence
