As part of the Mentored Sprints at PyCon US, Marielle wrote some property-based tests [1] for the colorsys module [2], which found two bugs.


Taking a YIQ color, converting to RGB, and back to YIQ can result in the Y coordinate varying by more 0.1 (where [0, 1] is the range of possible values).
For example: (0.0 1.0 2.2204460492503136e-16) -> RGB -> (0.0 1.1102230246251568e-16 1.0)

Taking an RGB color and converting though HSV-RBG-HSV can result in very different saturation values - up to having S1==0 and S2==1.
For example: (0.0 1.0 2.2204460492503136e-16) -> RGB -> (0.0 1.1102230246251568e-16 1.0)


You can reproduce additional examples and get error bounds from [3].
