NAME

6       HLSRGB - Converts a color specification given as Hue, Lightness, and
7       Saturation (HLS) values to Red, Green, and Blue (RGB) intensity values.

SYNOPSIS

10       CALL HLSRGB ( H, L, S, R, G, B )

C-BINDING SYNOPSIS

13       #include <ncarg/ncargC.h>

15       void c_hlsrgb (float h, float l, float s, float *r,
16       float *g, float *b)

DESCRIPTION

19       H           (REAL, input, range [0.,360.) ) represents the hue of the
20                   input color in HLS color space. H=0.  corresponds to blue.
21
22       L           (REAL, input, range [0.,100.])  represents the lightness
23                   value of the input color in HLS color space.  Lightness is
24                   a measure of the quantity of light - a lightness of 0. is
25                   black, and a lightness of 100.  gives white. The pure hues
26                   occur at lightness value 50.
27
28       S           (REAL, input, range [0.,100.])  represents the saturation
29                   value of the input color in HLS color space.  Saturation is
30                   a measure of how much white light is mixed with the color.
31                   Colors having a saturation value of 0. represent grays with
32                   a gray intensity value equal to the lightness L.  Colors
33                   with a saturation value of 100. are fully saturated colors.
34                   The hue is undefined when S=0.  The fully saturated pure
35                   hues occur when S=100.  and L=50.
36
37       R           (REAL, output, range [0.,1.])  represents the red intensity
38                   component of the output color in RGB color space.
39
40       G           (REAL, output, range [0.,1.])  represents the green
41                   intensity component of the output color in RGB color space.
42
43       B           (REAL, output, range [0.,1.])  represents the blue
44                   intensity component of the output color in RGB color space.

C-BINDING DESCRIPTION

47       The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN
48       argument descriptions.
