rev

logical indicating whether the ordering of the colors should be reversed.

A character vector containing the HEX codes and the same length as n is returned.

Examples

barplot(rep(10, 50), col = heat_colours(n = 50), border = NA)


barplot(rep(10, 50), col = heat_colours(n = 50, alpha = 0.5, rev = TRUE),
border = NA)
