Step-by-step math

Every number below is computed from the input, nothing is looked up.

1. input
```
H = 172.46°, S = 66.01%, L = 50.39%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.65495
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.57265   (H / 60° = 2.8743, sector 2)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.17642
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.00000, 0.65495, 0.57265)
R = round((0.00000 + 0.17642) × 255) = 45
G = round((0.65495 + 0.17642) × 255) = 212
B = round((0.57265 + 0.17642) × 255) = 191

6. RGB → HEX
```
#2DD4BF
```
