hue

hue()

Description

Extracts the hue value from a color or pixel list.

Hue exists in both HSB and HSL. This function will return the HSB-normalized hue when supplied with an HSB color object (or when supplied with a pixel list while the color mode is HSB),but will default to the HSL-normalized hue otherwise. (The values will only be different if the maximum hue setting for each system is different.)

Examples

from proceso import Sketch


p5 = Sketch()
p5.describe("Two rectangles, salmon pink on left and black on right, both 35×60.")

p5.no_stroke()
p5.color_mode(p5.HSB, 255)
c = p5.color(0, 126, 255)
p5.fill(c)
p5.rect(15, 20, 35, 60)
value = p5.hue(c) # Sets 'value' to "0"
p5.fill(value)
p5.rect(50, 20, 35, 60)
