Converting Hex/RGB values to HSL

[Dignitate]

Hello everyone,

I have an Excel sheet with a bunch of hex/RGB color values like: DD5802 or 221-88-2

I want them to convert into HSL values (I actually only need the L). Are there any packages or other ways to do that?

Thanks in advance

One option is col2hsl from the plotwidgets package:

library(plotwidgets)
library(stringr)

col2hsl("#DD5802")
#>         [,1]
#> H 23.5616438
#> S  0.9820628
#> L  0.4372549

col = c("221-88-2")
col = as.numeric(str_split(col, "-", simplify=TRUE))
col2hsl(rgb(col[1],col[2],col[3],maxColorValue=255))
#>         [,1]
#> H 23.5616438
#> S  0.9820628
#> L  0.4372549
