[R] Colours in R

2008-07-17 Thread Leandro Marino
Hi list,


 I will help an person that will use some graphics of R in internet.

But this pearson want to specify the colours. This person want me to create
an pallete of colours like that:


Name of color - Code - Colour
White - 0xFF - color white (like an box with this color)

I know that is possible with R, but i don't know how.

Thanks for the advance.

The colors() function returns all of the names.

The ?col2rgb has examples that produce text tables like what you want, 
but doing it graphically will be hard:  there are 150 different colours 
to show.  There's some code in the ?rainbow examples that displays a 
smaller number of colours.

This page shows an R color chart and how to make one:
http://research.stowers-institute.org/efg/R/Color/Chart/index.htm

In particular, pp. 2-8 of this PDF shows the color name, hex value, and 
separate decimal RGB components:
