### Is there a way to specify a color using a color wheel?
The color wheel routines you may have seen in other code is really a hack of the core feature of HSL or HSB(HSV) color space. The number often represented in degrees of 0 to 360 is actually the Hue value for this alternate color spaces. Its called a color wheel as these color spaces are often displayed as a wheel as their target audience was visual designers and not engineers.

NOTE: There is no HsvColor in my library, as HsbColor is really the same thing.
NOTE: There is no HsvColor in my library, but HsbColor is really the same thing.
You can thus just use the HslColor or HsbColor objects to accomplish this. In the case of my library, the Hue value range is 0.0 to 1.0 instead of 0 to 360, so some minor math will correct that.
