Convert RGB color to HLS
Synopsis
plrgbhls(r, g, b, p_h, p_l, p_s)
Description
Convert RGB color coordinates to HLS
Redacted form: General: plrgbhls(r, g, b, p_h, p_l, p_s)
This function is used in example 2.
Arguments
- r (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Red intensity (0.0-1.0) of the color. 
- g (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Green intensity (0.0-1.0) of the color. 
- b (PLFLT(3plplot), input)
- Blue intensity (0.0-1.0) of the color. 
- p_h (PLFLT_NC_SCALAR(3plplot), output)
- Returned value of the hue in degrees (0.0-360.0) on the color cylinder. 
- p_l (PLFLT_NC_SCALAR(3plplot), output)
- Returned value of the lightness expressed as a fraction (0.0-1.0) of the axis of the color cylinder. 
- p_s (PLFLT_NC_SCALAR(3plplot), output)
- Returned value of the saturation expressed as a fraction (0.0-1.0) of the radius of the color cylinder.
