SYNOPSIS

use Math::Color;
my $c = new Math::Color;  # Make a new Color

my $c1 = new Math::Color(0,1,0);

DESCRIPTION

METHODS

new(r,g,b)

r, g, b are given on [0, 1].

my $c = new Math::Color; 					  
my $c1 = new Math::Color($v);   
my $c2 = new Math::Color(0, 0.5, 1);   
my $c3 = new Math::Color([0, 0.5, 1]); 

copy

Makes a copy

$c2 = $c1->copy;
$c2 = new Math::Color($c1);

setValue(r,g,b)

Sets the value of the color. r, g, b are given on [0, 1].

$c1->setValue(0, 0.2, 1);

setRed(r)

Sets the first value of the color r is given on [0, 1].

$c1->setRed(1);

$c1->red = 1;
$c1->r   = 1;
$c1->[0] = 1;

setGreen(g)

Sets the second value of the color. g is given on [0, 1].

$c1->setGreen(0.2);

$c1->green = 0.2;
$c1->g   = 0.2;
$c1->[1] = 0.2;

setBlue(b)

Sets the third value of the color. b is given on [0, 1].

$c1->setBlue(0.3);

$c1->blue   = 0.3;
$c1->[2] = 0.3;

getValue

Returns the @value of the color.

@v = $c1->getValue;

r

red

getRed

Returns the first value of the color.

$r = $c1->getRed;
$r = $c1->red;
$r = $c1->r;
$r = $c1->[0];

g

green

getGreen

Returns the second value of the color.

$g = $c1->getGreen;
$g = $c1->green;
$g = $c1->g;
$g = $c1->[1];

b

blue

getBlue

Returns the third value of the color.

$b = $c1->getBlue;
$b = $c1->blue;
$b = $c1->b;
$b = $c1->[2];

setHSV(h,s,v)

h is given on [0, 2 pi]. s, v are given on [0, 1]. RGB are each returned on [0, 1].

$c->setHSV(1/12,1,1);  # 1 0.5 0

getHSV

h is in [0, 2 pi]. s, v are each returned on [0, 1].

@hsv = $c->getHSV;

toString

Returns a string representation of the color. This is used to overload the '""' operator, so that color may be freely interpolated in strings.

my $c = new Math::Color(0.1, 0.2, 0.3);
print $c->toString; # "0.1, 0.2, 0.3"
print "$c";         # "0.1, 0.2, 0.3"
