Step-by-step math

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

1. input
```
H = 171.69°, S = 81.37%, L = 60.00%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.65096
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.56080   (H / 60° = 2.8615, sector 2)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.27452
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.00000, 0.65096, 0.56080)
R = round((0.00000 + 0.27452) × 255) = 70
G = round((0.65096 + 0.27452) × 255) = 236
B = round((0.56080 + 0.27452) × 255) = 213

6. RGB → HEX
```
#46ECD5
```
