 	Percentage Normalization

 	Calculating the Result of color-mix
 </h3>
 
-After normalizing both percentages, the result is produced via the following algorithm:
-
-1. If the alpha multiplier is zero, the result is ''transparent'', converted to the specified interpolation <<color-space>>
-2. Otherwise, as described in [[css-color-4#interpolation]],
-	both colors are converted to the specified interpolation <<color-space>>,
-	taking into account any [=analogous components=].
-3. Colors are then interpolated in the 	specified color space,
-	as described in [[css-color-4#interpolation]].
-	If the specified color space is a ''cylindrical-polar-color'' space,
-	then the <<hue-interpolation-method>> controls the
-	interpolation of hue, as described in
-	[[css-color-4#hue-interpolation]].
-	If no <<hue-interpolation-method>> is specified, it is as if
-	''shorter'' had been specified.
-4. If an alpha multiplier was produced during percentage normalization,
-	the alpha component of the interpolated result is multiplied
-	by the alpha multiplier.
+<div algorithm>
+	To <dfn export>calculate a color-mix()</dfn>:
+
+	1. [=Normalize mix percentages=] from the list of [=mix items=] passed to the function,
+		letting |items| and |leftover| be the result.
+	2. Let |alpha mult| be <code>1 - |leftover|</code>,
+		interpreting |leftover| as a number between 0 and 1.
+	3. If |alpha mult| is 0,
+		return [=transparent black=],
+		converted to the specified interpolation <<color-space>>.
+	4. If |items| is length 1,
+		set |color| to the color of that sole item.
+
+		Otherwise:
+
+		1. Let |item stack| be a [=/stack=] made by reversing |items|.
+			(Thus, with the first item at the top of the stack.)
+		2. While |item stack| has length 2 or greater:
+			1. [=stack/Pop=] from |item stack| twice,
+				letting |a| and |b| be the two results in order.
+				Let |combined percentage| be the sum of |a| and |b|’s percentages.
+			2. Interpolate |a| and |b|’s colors
+				as described in [[css-color-4#interpolation]],
+				with a progress percentage equal to <code>(|b|’s percentage) / |combined percentage|)</code>.
+				If the specified color space is a [=cylindrical polar color=] space,
+				then the <<hue-interpolation-method>> controls the
+				interpolation of hue, as described in
+				[[css-color-4#hue-interpolation]].
+				If no <<hue-interpolation-method>> is specified,
+				assume ''shorter''.
+			3. Create a new [=mix item=] with the resulting color
+				and a percentage of |combined percentage|,
+				and [=stack/push=] it onto |item stack|.
+		3. Set |color| to the color of the sole remaining item in |item stack|.
+	5. Multiply the alpha component of |color| by |alpha mult|.
+	6. Return |color|.
+
+	Note: In [=cylindrical polar color=] spaces,
+	mixing is order-dependent,
+	as which direction is “shorter” or “longer” around the hue circle
+	can change depending on what other mixes have already been performed.
+	This algorithm mixes each color in the specified order,
+	mixing the result with the next in the list.
+	For [=rectangular orthogonal color=] spaces,
+	the order doesn't matter,
+	and the process can be simplified.
