Converting string to hex triplet

[deanhystad]

PIL has a colormap dictionary.

from PIL import ImageColor

def print_color_info(name):
    color = ImageColor.colormap[name]
    print(f'{name} = {color}, RGB = {color[1:3]},{color[3:5]},{color[5:7]}')

print_color_info('red')
print_color_info('green')
print_color_info('blue')
print_color_info('orange')
print_color_info('yellow')

Output:
red = #ff0000, RGB = ff,00,00
green = #008000, RGB = 00,80,00
blue = #0000ff, RGB = 00,00,ff
orange = #ffa500, RGB = ff,a5,00
yellow = #ffff00, RGB = ff,ff,00
