Example 1: c# color to console color

public static ConsoleColor FromColor(Color c)
        {
            int index = (c.R > 128 | c.G > 128 | c.B > 128) ? 8 : 0; // Bright bit
            index |= (c.R > 64) ? 4 : 0; // Red bit
            index |= (c.G > 64) ? 2 : 0; // Green bit
            index |= (c.B > 64) ? 1 : 0; // Blue bit

            return (System.ConsoleColor)index;
        }
