Converting Hex to RGB value in Python

Question

Working off Jeremy\'s response here: Converting hex color to RGB and vice-versa I was able to get a python program to convert preset colour hex codes (example #B4FBB8), howe

Answer 1

The following function will convert hex string to rgb values:

def hex_to_rgb(hex_string):
    r_hex = hex_string[1:3]
    g_hex = hex_string[3:5]
    b_hex = hex_string[5:7]
    return int(r_hex, 16), int(g_hex, 16), int(b_hex, 16)

This will convert the hexadecimal_string to decimal number

int(hex_string, 16)

For example:

int('ff', 16) # Gives 255 in integer data type
