The title of your email should have the form &conditionals-and-colors-subject; and should contain your answers to all parts of the assignment. Scheme code should be in the body of the message. Warning: So that this assignment is a learning experience for everyone, we may spend class time publicly critiquing your work.

a. Write a predicate, (is-color? value), that returns #t when value is either an RGB color or a color name recognized by MediaScript. In all other cases, it should return #f. You can use the predicates rgb? and color-name?, which are already defined, to help you. You should not use the predicate color?; we want you to write your own version. b. Write your own version of color-to-rgb, which is a very useful procedure. Your procedure should have the following behavior: If given an RGB color, it returns that color unchanged. If given a color name, it returns the result of calling color-name->rgb on that color name. If given any other type of value, it returns #f. You should not use the built-in color->rgb procedure; we want you to write your own version.

The previous transform tries to enhance the most pronounced color in the RGB representation. It may be more useful for us to explore alternate representations of color that are somewhat more intuitive. The HSV (for hue, saturation, and value) representation is one possibility. Hue represents the pure color (e.g., red, blue, yellow, green, or a combination of one of these). Saturation represents the "colorfulness" of the hue in the color. For instance, a completely saturated color would be a pure hue (like red), while a lesser saturated color might appear just as bright but somewhat faded (perhaps rose or pink). Value, then represents the brightness relative to a similarly bright white. Hue is represented as an angle, or a point on a circle. Thus, the values 0-360 sweep through colors red (0 degrees), yellow (60 degrees), green (120 degrees), cyan (180 degrees), blue (240 degrees), magenta (300 degrees), and back to red (at 360 or 0 degrees). There are a variety of transformations that can take an RGB color and give an HSV representation. In this problem, we'll focus on just extracting the hue. Before we describe how to calculate hue, we need some basic values to refer to. Let (red, green, blue) refer to the red, green, and blue components of an RGB color, respectively. The chroma of a color is the largest of the RGB components minus the smallest of the RGB components. For example, the chroma of (128,64,50) is 128-50, or 78; the chroma of (0,255,0) is 255-0, or 255. The chroma of (255,255,255) is 255-255, or 0. The raw hue can then be calculated as follows: (green-blue)/chroma if red is a largest component (blue-red)/chroma+2 if green is a largest component (red-green)/chroma+4 if blue is a largest component if chroma=0 the hue is undefined, because all the components are the same and we would have a gray. In this case, one convention is to set the hue to 0. The raw hue as given above produces a value between -1 and 6 (corresponding to the 6 cardinal colors described above). If it is negative, we should add 6 to get us back to a positive representation. The final result is converted to the range 0-360 by multiplying by 60 degrees (which is 360/6). What happens if chroma is not 0, and two of the components are both the largest? If the formula is well-designed, it shouldn't matter. Hence, you can try the largest component tests in order. Using the algorithm given above, write a procedure (rgb->hue-angle rgb) that takes an RGB color and produces its hue. For example, > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-RED) 0 > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-YELLOW) 60 > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-GREEN) 120 > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-CYAN) 180 > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-BLUE) 240 > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-MAGENTA) 300 > (rgb->hue-angle RGB-PINK) 7340/21 > (round (rgb->hue-angle RGB-PINK)) 350 Note: You may wish to use a let statement or helper procedures to decompose your implementation into managable, meaningful units. Please be sure to give your variables and procedures meaningful names.

Being able to manipulate the hue in a color can actually be quite useful. MediaScheme can convert an HSV color into an RGB with the procedure (hsv->rgb hsv-list), where hsv-list is a three-element list containing the hue, saturation, and value components of a HSV color. MediaScheme can also extract the saturation and value from an RGB color with the procedures (rgb->saturation rgb) and (rgb->value rgb). Write a procedure (rgb-change-hue rgb hue) that takes an RGB color and a hue value (in the range 0-360) and creates a new RGB color using the given hue with the saturation and value of rgb. Warning! hsv->rgb only works with exact numbers. Thus you may need to use inexact->exact.

It turns out that making color transforms based on hue be can visually interesting.

Original Image	Hue rotated 30 deg	Hue rotated 90 deg

a. Using the procedures you have written so far, write a procedure (rgb-rotate-hue rgb angle) that takes a color and produces a new rgb color where the HSV equivalent has a hue rotated by angle degrees, a number between 0-360. Hint: If the rotated angle is greater than 360, be sure to wrap around properly (e.g., using modulo) to get the correct hue angle. b. Write an expression as concisely as possible that will rotate the hues in an entire image (say, called picture) by 30 degrees. Warning: When you apply rgb-rotate-hue thousands of times (as you will in an image of non-trivial size), it is likely to take some time. Do your testing on small images.

Create your own RGB color transform that transforms the hue of its input color conditionally using a manner of your own choosing. For instance, you may choose to shift colors close to blue more toward green, leaving the rest unchanged. Include a description of the effect of your transform in English. We should be able to apply your transform using image-variant or image-transform!.

We will evaluate your work on the correctness, clarity, and conciseness of your code, and on the creativity of your response to the last problem.
