Step-by-step math

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

  1. 1. input

    H = 240.00°, S = 5.26%, L = 26.08%
  2. 2. C

    C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.02744
  3. 3. X

    X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.00000   (H / 60° = 4.0000, sector 4)
  4. 4. m

    m = L − C / 2 = 0.24708
  5. 5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

    (R′, G′, B′) = (0.00000, 0.00000, 0.02744)
    R = round((0.00000 + 0.24708) × 255) = 63
    G = round((0.00000 + 0.24708) × 255) = 63
    B = round((0.02744 + 0.24708) × 255) = 70
  6. 6. RGB → HEX
