Step-by-step math

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

  1. 1. input

    H = 180.00°, S = 100.00%, L = 97.06%
  2. 2. C

    C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.05880
  3. 3. X

    X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.05880   (H / 60° = 3.0000, sector 3)
  4. 4. m

    m = L − C / 2 = 0.94120
  5. 5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

    (R′, G′, B′) = (0.00000, 0.05880, 0.05880)
    R = round((0.00000 + 0.94120) × 255) = 240
    G = round((0.05880 + 0.94120) × 255) = 255
    B = round((0.05880 + 0.94120) × 255) = 255
  6. 6. RGB → HEX
