- java.lang.Enum<ColorSpace>
- - micycle.peasygradients.colorspace.ColorSpace

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Comparable<ColorSpace>
```
public enum ColorSpace
extends Enum<ColorSpace>
```
Represents the different color spaces that can be used for color gradients. Each color space has its own way of representing colors and this affects the nature of interpolated colors within a a gradient.
Additionally, utility methods are provided to navigate through the enum values, allowing one to easily cycle through the various color spaces.

Enum Constant Summary

Enum Constants
Enum Constant	Description
`DLAB`	DLAB (DIN99) color space is designed for better uniformity in color differences, based on the CIELAB model with adjustments for human vision.
`HLAB`	HLAB (Hunter L, a, b) color space is designed for visual uniformity, offering improvements in the representation of yellow and blue colors compared to XYZ.
`HSB`	HSB (Hue, Saturation, Brightness) color space defines colors in terms of their shade, intensity, and brightness, making it intuitive for human understanding.
`IPT`	IPT color space is designed for uniformity in perceived hue, with dimensions for lightness-darkness (I), red-green (P), and yellow-blue (T).
`ITP`	Dolby ITP (IC_TC_P) color space focuses on high-fidelity HDR/WCG content, with dimensions for intensity (I), chroma (Ct), and protanopia (Cp).
`JAB`	JAB (J_zA_zB_z) color space aims for perceptual uniformity in HDR/WCG environments, with dimensions for lightness (Jz), red-green (Az), and yellow-blue (Bz).
`LAB`	LAB color space describes colors in terms of Lightness, a (from green to red), and b (from blue to yellow), aiming for perceptual uniformity.
`LUV`	LUV color space emphasizes perceptual uniformity in lightness and chromaticity, based on the CIE 1976 L, u, v* formulas.
`OKLAB`	Oklab color space is designed for uniform lightness and colorfulness based on a perceptual model, improving upon the IPT principles.
`RGB`	RGB color space represents colors in terms of the intensity of Red, Green, and Blue light.
`RYB`	RYB color space is based on the primary colors Red, Yellow, and Blue.
`SRLAB2`	SRLAB2 color space offers a balance between CIELAB's simplicity and CIECAM02's accuracy, aiming for practicality in color difference evaluation.
`XYB`	XYB color space, used in JPEG XL, focuses on perceptual uniformity with dimensions for red-green (X), yellow (Y), and blue (B).
`XYZ`	XYZ color space is a linear color space based on human vision, serving as a basis for many other color spaces.
