How to Convert a Hex String to RGB in Python

The challenge

When working with color values it can sometimes be useful to extract the individual red, green, and blue (RGB) component values for a color. Implement a function that meets these requirements:

• Accepts a case-insensitive hexadecimal color string as its parameter (ex. "#FF9933" or "#ff9933")
• Returns a Map<String, int> with the structure {r: 255, g: 153, b: 51} where r, g, and b range from 0 through 255

Note: your implementation does not need to support the shorthand form of hexadecimal notation (ie "#FFF")

Example:

"#FF9933" --> {r: 255, g: 153, b: 51}

The solution in Python code

Option 1:

def hex_string_to_RGB(s):
    return {i:int(s[j:j+2],16) for i,j in zip('rgb',[1,3,5])}

Option 2:

def hex_string_to_RGB(hex_string):
    r = int(hex_string[1:3], 16)
    g = int(hex_string[3:5], 16)
    b = int(hex_string[5:7], 16)
    return {'r': r, 'g': g, 'b': b}

Option 3:

from PIL import ImageColor
def hex_string_to_RGB(hex_string):
    rgb = ImageColor.getrgb(hex_string)
    res = {
        'r': rgb[0],
        'g': rgb[1],
        'b': rgb[2]
    }
    return res
