How do i get the hue, saturation and brightness from a UIColor?

Question

I want to get the individual values from a UIColor. Unsure how to do it?

Answer 1

At the bottom of Dustin's algorithm, he mentions all UIColor objects in iOS 5 and later now have

getHue:saturation:brightness:alpha:

This makes it very easy to get the values from a color. This is definitely the easiest solution now, and most everyone is on iOS 5.
