.SH SYNOPSIS
.IP

\f[C]
#include\ <allegro5/allegro_color.h>
ALLEGRO_COLOR\ al_color_lch(float\ l,\ float\ c,\ float\ h)
\f[]
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
.PP
Return an ALLEGRO_COLOR(3) structure from CIE LCH values.
LCH colors are very similar to HSL, with the same meaning of L and H and
C corresponding to S.
However LCH is more visually uniform.
Furthermore, this function expects the angle for H in radians and not in
degree.
.PP
The CIE LCH color space is a cylindrical representation of the L*a*b*
color space.
The L component is the same and C and H are computed like this:
.IP
.nf
\f[C]
C\ =\ sqrt(a\ *\ a\ +\ b\ *\ b)
H\ =\ atan2(b,\ a)
