Step-by-step math

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

1. input
```
H = 263.39°, S = 69.96%, L = 50.39%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.69414
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.27060   (H / 60° = 4.3898, sector 4)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.15683
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.27060, 0.00000, 0.69414)
R = round((0.27060 + 0.15683) × 255) = 109
G = round((0.00000 + 0.15683) × 255) = 40
B = round((0.69414 + 0.15683) × 255) = 217

6. RGB → HEX
```
#6D28D9
```
