Step-by-step math

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

  1. 1. input

    H = 270.00°, S = 100.00%, L = 98.04%
  2. 2. C

    C = (1 − |2L − 1|) × S = 0.03920
  3. 3. X

    X = C × (1 − |(H / 60°) mod 2 − 1|) = 0.01960   (H / 60° = 4.5000, sector 4)
  4. 4. m

    m = L − C / 2 = 0.96080
  5. 5. (R′, G′, B′) + m

    (R′, G′, B′) = (0.01960, 0.00000, 0.03920)
    R = round((0.01960 + 0.96080) × 255) = 250
    G = round((0.00000 + 0.96080) × 255) = 245
    B = round((0.03920 + 0.96080) × 255) = 255
  6. 6. RGB → HEX
