Api

flati(seed: String|Number, i: Optional Number)

Returns value in RGB color space:

{
    r: Number,
    g: Number, 
    b: Number,
    toString: Function // rgb(r, g, b)
}

Usage:

For example if we want generate unique color for each user.

var users = [
    {id: 'john'},
    {id: 'jane'},
    {id: 'jenny'}
];

users.forEach(function(user) {
    // use user id as seed
    var color1 = flati(user.id); // equal to flati(user.id, 0);
    var color2 = flati(user.id, 1);
});

• When you increment i parameter, it's guaranteed that two similar colors will not be generated consecutive.
• With the same seed, you always gets the same results.
