RGBHSV - Converts a color specification given in the Red, Green, Blue (RGB) color space to color values
Contents
Access
To use RGBHSV or c_rgbhsv, load the NCAR Graphics libraries ncarg, ncarg_gks, and ncarg_c, preferably in
that order.
C-Binding Description
The C-binding argument descriptions are the same as the FORTRAN argument descriptions.
C-Binding Synopsis
#include <ncarg/ncargC.h>
void c_rgbhsv (float r, float g, float b, float *h,
float *s, float *v)

Description
R (REAL, input, range [0.,1.]) represents the red intensity component of the input point in
RGB color space.
G (REAL, input, range [0.,1.]) represents the green intensity component of the input point in
RGB color space.
B (REAL, input, range [0.,1.]) represents the blue intensity component of the input point in
RGB color space.
H (REAL, output, range [0.,360.) ) represents the hue of the input point in HSV color space. A
value of (R,0.,0.) in the input space will result in a hue of 0. in the output space.
S (REAL, output, range [0.,1.]) represents the saturation value of the input point in HSV
color space. Saturation is a measure of how much white light is mixed with the color.
Saturation values of 0. represent grays (with a gray value equal to V). Saturation values
of 1. are fully saturated colors. The hue is technically undefined when S=0.; the code
leaves H at its previous value when S=0. (0. initially). The fully saturated pure hues occur
when S=1. and V=1.
V (REAL, output, range [0.,1.]) represents the value in HSV space.
Examples
Use the ncargex command to see the following relevant examples: tcolcv, fcce02.
