[matplotlib-devel] Colormap that prints nicely in black and white
Hi all, Don't know if anybody else has found a colormap that is aesthetically pleasing and prints well in black and white. I found one after a lot of Googling. Perhaps useful for plotting figures in journals that charge a lot for colour figures. I got the colormap from: http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/iel5/74/22101/01028735.pdf%3Farnumber%3D1028735 I decided to code it up (see attached text file for the cdict). If anybody finds it useful, maybe it could go into the default colormaps that ship with matplotlib. cdict = {'red' : ((0.000, 0.00, 0.00), (0.125, 0.15, 0.15), (0.250, 0.30, 0.30), (0.375, 0.60, 0.60), (0.500, 1.00, 1.00), (0.625, 0.90, 0.90), (0.750, 0.90, 0.90), (0.875, 0.90, 0.90), (1.000, 1.00, 1.00)), 'green' : ((0.000, 0.00, 0.00), (0.125, 0.15, 0.15), (0.250, 0.15, 0.15), (0.375, 0.20, 0.20), (0.500, 0.25, 0.25), (0.625, 0.50, 0.50), (0.750, 0.75, 0.75), (0.875, 0.90, 0.90), (1.000, 1.00, 1.00)), 'blue' : ((0.000, 0.00, 0.00), (0.125, 0.50, 0.50), (0.250, 0.75, 0.75), (0.375, 0.50, 0.50), (0.500, 0.15, 0.15), (0.625, 0.00, 0.00), (0.750, 0.10, 0.10), (0.875, 0.50, 0.50), (1.000, 1.00, 1.00)) } Regards, -- Damon -- Damon McDougall Mathematics Institute University of Warwick Coventry CV4 7AL d.mcdoug...@warwick.ac.uk -- This SF.net email is sponsored by Make an app they can't live without Enter the BlackBerry Developer Challenge http://p.sf.net/sfu/RIM-dev2dev ___ Matplotlib-devel mailing list Matplotlib-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/matplotlib-devel

It might be a useful feature in matplotlib.color to provide a function that can take a colormap and produce a grayscale version of it. In my limited amount of research, I have found that one could convert the rgb values into hsv or hsl and use the "value" or "lightness" respectively for the grayscale value. I forget which one was aesthetically better, though.
