Imager::Color - Color handling for Imager.

       Arnar M. Hrafnkelsson, addi@umich.edu And a great deal of help from others  -  see  the  "README"  for  a
       complete list.

       This module handles creating color objects used by Imager.  The idea is that in the future this module
       will be able to handle color space calculations as well.

       An Imager color consists of up to four components, each in the range 0 to 255. Unfortunately the meaning
       of the components can change depending on the type of image you're dealing with:

       •   for 3 or 4 channel images the color components are red, green, blue, alpha.

       •   for  1  or  2  channel  images  the  color  components are gray, alpha, with the other two components
           ignored.

       An alpha value of zero is fully transparent, an alpha value of 255 is fully opaque.

hsv()
               my($h, $s, $v, $alpha) = $color->hsv();

           Returns the color as a Hue/Saturation/Value/Alpha tuple.

       red
       green
       blue
       alpha
           Returns the respective component as an integer from 0 to 255.

       as_float
           Returns the color as a Imager::Color::Float object.

       as_css_rgb
           Returns the color as a CSS rgb() format color.  This is always returned in the byte form, eg. rgb(255
           128 64).

           If the alpha is not full coverage (255) it will be rounded if the result of converting the color back
           to an 8 bit color would return the same alpha, eg. if the color alpha is 128, it will be formatted as
           0.5, not as the more precise 50.2%.
