Convert color values between the HSV and RGB color spaces. The RGB values range from 0 to 255, hue is from 0 to 360, and saturation and value are from 0 to 1. Example: 

   int r, g, b;
   float hue, saturation, value;
   ...
   /* Convert a reddish color to HSV format. */
   rgb_to_hsv(255, 0, 128, &hue, &saturation, &value);
   
   /* Now put our tin foil hat, and verify that. */
   hsv_to_rgb(hue, saturation, value, &r, &g, &b);
   ASSERT(r == 255);
   ASSERT(g == 0);
   ASSERT(b == 128);
