Rainbow Colors
Description
Generates a gradient of rainbow colors.
Usage
rainbow(n, s = 1, v = 1, start = 0, end = max(1, n - 1)/n, alpha = 1)
Arguments
  
| n | the number of colors desired. | 
  | s | a number or vector of n numbers between 0 and 1 giving the 'saturation'
of the colors.
Small numbers give washed-out colors. | 
  | v | a number or vector of n numbers between 0 and 1 giving the 'value'
of the colors.
Small numbers give muddy colors. | 
  | start | a number between 0 and 1 giving the hue of the first color.  0 and 1
are both red; the order is red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo,
violet, and then back to red. | 
  | end | a number between 0 and 1 giving the hue of the last color. | 
  | alpha | a number or vector of n numbers between 0 and 1 giving the opacity
of the colors. | 
 
Value
returns the vector of n color strings,
equispaced in the hue-saturation-value color parameterization.
The color strings have the format "#RRGGBB" or "#RRGGBBAA" where XX are
two digit hexadecimal values (range 00-FF) for the red, green, blue, and possible
alpha (opacity) components of the colors.
