NAME

       al_color_lab - Allegro 5 API

SYNOPSIS

              #include <allegro5/allegro_color.h>

              ALLEGRO_COLOR al_color_lab(float l, float a, float b)

DESCRIPTION

       Return an ALLEGRO_COLOR(3alleg5) structure from CIE L*a*b* values.  The L* component corresponds to lumi‐
       nance from 0..1.  The a* and b* components are in the range -1..+1.

              Note:

              The L*a*b* color space can represent more colors than are visible in sRGB and therefore conversion
              may  result  in RGB values outside of the 0..1 range.  You can check for that case with al_is_col‐
              or_valid(3alleg5).

              Note:

              In some literature the range of L* is 0 to 100 and a* and b* are from -100 to +100.  In that  case
              divide all components by 100 before passing them to this function.
