//! Michelson contrast calculation.
//!
//! Implements the [Michelson contrast](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contrast_(vision)#Michelson_contrast)
//! formula, also known as visibility or modulation contrast. Defined as
//! `(L_max - L_min) / (L_max + L_min)`, it produces values from 0.0 (no contrast)
//! to 1.0 (maximum contrast). Originally developed for sinusoidal gratings.

use crate::space::Xyz;

/// Calculates Michelson contrast between two colors.
///
/// The result ranges from 0.0 (identical luminance) to 1.0 (maximum contrast)
/// and is order-independent.
