Step-by-step math

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

1. input
```
H = 6.18°, S = 93.15%, L = 71.37%
```
2. C
```
C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.53338
```

3. X

X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.05494   (H / 60° = 0.1030, sector 0)

4. m
```
m = L − C / 2 = 0.44701
```

5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

(R′, G′, B′) = (0.53338, 0.05494, 0.00000)
R = round((0.53338 + 0.44701) × 255) = 250
G = round((0.05494 + 0.44701) × 255) = 128
B = round((0.00000 + 0.44701) × 255) = 114

6. RGB → HEX
```
#FA8072
```
