### RGB to hexadecimal
|
||||
|
||||
Convert each value to a hexadecimal string, using `toString(16)`, then `padStart(2,'0')` to get a 2-digit hexadecimal value.
|
||||
Combine values using `join('')`.
|
||||
Convert given RGB parameters to hexadecimal string using bitwise left-shift operator.
|
||||
|
||||
```js
|
||||
const rgbToHex = (r, g, b) =>
|
||||
[r,g,b].map( v => v.toString(16).padStart(2,'0')).join('');
|
||||
// rgbToHex(0, 127, 255) -> '007fff'
|
||||
((r << 16) + (g << 8) + b).toString(16).padStart(6, '0');
|
||||
// rgbToHex(255, 165, 1) -> 'ffa501'
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Think the RGB values as binary, the max value for each will be `255` in decimal and `11111111` (8-bit) in binary. So, the left most side in hexadecimal form is for red value, middle part is green, most right side is blue, as you probably already know. To summarize it over orange `rgb(255, 165, 1)`, `#ffa501` color.
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
255 165 1
|
||||
(r << 16) 11111111 00000000 00000000
|
||||
+ (g << 8) 11111111 10100101 00000000
|
||||
+ (b) 11111111 10100101 00000001
|
||||
|
||||
toString(16) ff a5 01
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
We simply moving values to their appropriate locations. `padStart(6, '0')` is needed for leading left most zero characters.
