Step-by-step math

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

1. input
```
H = 146.45°, S = 50.27%, L = 36.27%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.36466
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.16075   (H / 60° = 2.4408, sector 2)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.18037
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.00000, 0.36466, 0.16075)
R = round((0.00000 + 0.18037) × 255) = 46
G = round((0.36466 + 0.18037) × 255) = 139
B = round((0.16075 + 0.18037) × 255) = 87

6. RGB → HEX
```
#2E8B57
```
