NAME
       "Convert::Color::HSL" - a color value represented as hue/saturation/lightness

SYNOPSIS
       Directly:

	use Convert::Color::HSL;

	my $red = Convert::Color::HSL->new( 0, 1, 0.5 );

	# Can also parse strings
	my $pink = Convert::Color::HSL->new( '0,1,0.8' );

       Via Convert::Color:

	use Convert::Color;

	my $cyan = Convert::Color->new( 'hsl:300,1,0.5' );

DESCRIPTION
       Objects in this class represent a color in HSL space, as a set of three floating-point values. Hue is stored as a value in degrees, in the
       range 0 to 360 (exclusive). Saturation and lightness are in the range 0 to 1.

CONSTRUCTOR
   $color = Convert::Color::HSL->new( $hue, $saturation, $lightness )
       Returns a new object to represent the set of values given. The hue should be in the range 0 to 360 (exclusive), and saturation and
       lightness should be between 0 and 1. Values outside of these ranges will be clamped.

   $color = Convert::Color::HSL->new( $string )
       Parses $string for values, and construct a new object similar to the above three-argument form. The string should be in the form

	hue,saturation,lightnes

       containing the three floating-point values in decimal notation.

METHODS
   $h = $color->hue
   $s = $color->saturation
   $v = $color->lightness
       Accessors for the three components of the color.

   ( $hue, $saturation, $lightness ) = $color->hsl
       Returns the individual hue, saturation and lightness components of the color value.
