Step-by-step math

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

1. input
```
H = 272.48°, S = 100.00%, L = 73.92%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.52160
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.28236   (H / 60° = 4.5413, sector 4)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.47840
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.28236, 0.00000, 0.52160)
R = round((0.28236 + 0.47840) × 255) = 194
G = round((0.00000 + 0.47840) × 255) = 122
B = round((0.52160 + 0.47840) × 255) = 255

6. RGB → HEX
```
#C27AFF
```
