Generate a vector of n contiguous colours, as a red-yellow-green palette. — heat_colours • wpa

Takes a numeric value n and returns a character vector of colour HEX codes corresponding to the heat map palette.

heat_colours(n, alpha, rev = FALSE)

heat_colors(n, alpha, rev = FALSE)

Arguments

n: the number of colors (>= 1) to be in the palette.
alpha: an alpha-transparency level in the range of 0 to 1 (0 means transparent and 1 means opaque)
