    // here we demonstrate setting colors using HSB (Hue/Saturation/Brightness) rather than the 
    // more well-known RGB (Red/Green/Blue).
    
    // HSB allows colors to be specified in a way that is perhaps more natural to the understanding
    // of color that we have through language, using numerical values to describe 'hue', 
    // 'saturation' and 'brightness'. 
    
    // 'hue' refers to the 'color' in the rainbow sense, moving from red through yellow through
    //   green through blue through purple through red, looping around again.
    // 'saturation' refers to the intensity of the color. high saturation means intense color,
    //   low saturation means washed out or black and white.    
    // 'brightness' refers to how light or dark the color is. high brightness means a bright color,
    //   low brightness is dark. if the brightness is 0 the resulting color will be black, regardless 
    //   of the values for hue or saturation.
        
    // in ofColor all the values are specified as 0..255 .
    
    // for example, to specify an orange color that is strong and bright, you start by specifying the 
    // hue for the orange you want (a number from 15-30, 15 is more red and 30 is more yellow), then 
    // the saturation (something between 180 and 255 for high saturation) and the brightness (180 to 
    // 255 for bright).
    
    // for grays (and black and white) you can use any value for hue, set the saturation to 0 and 
    // control the level of gray with the brightness value: 255 is white, 0 is black, 128 is 50% gray.    

    
    
    // we want to draw a grid of 5 pixel x 5 pixel rectangles with a fixed hue, varying in 
    // saturation and brightness over X and Y
    
    // we use one hue (value from 0..255) for the whole grid. it changes over time. we use f to
    // keep the hue value between 0 and 255, it works just like integer modulo (the % operator) but 
    // for floats.
	float hue = fmodf(ofGetElapsedTimef()*10,255);

    // step through horizontally
    for ( int i=0; i<ofGetWidth(); i+=step )

        {
            // set HSB using our hue value that changes over time, saturation from the X position (i), 
            // and brightness from the Y position (j). we also invert the Y value since it looks 
            // nicer if the dark/black colors are along the bottom.
            ofColor c;
            // the range of each of the arguments here is 0..255 so we map i and j to that range.
