\title{
Create set of colors, interpolating through a set of preferred colors.
}
\description{
Create set of colors, interpolating through a set of preferred colors.
}
\usage{
darkColors(n)
seqColors(n)
seqColors2(n)
divColors(n)
}

\arguments{
  \item{n}{integer determining number of colors to be generated}
}

\details{
\code{darkColors} is based on the Dark2 palette in RColorBrewer, therefore
useful to describe qualitative features of the data.

\code{seqColors} is based on Blues and generates a gradient of blues, therefore
useful to describe quantitative features of the data. \code{seqColors2}
behaves similarly, but it is based on OrRd (white-orange-red).

\code{divColors} is based on the RdBu pallete in RColorBrewer, therefore
useful to describe quantitative features ranging on two extremes.
