Find preferably distinct R built-in colors

Find a vector of distinct R built-in colors for a pre-defined length ('nrcol').

distinctcolors(nrcol = 10, method = "RGB", bw = FALSE, show = TRUE,
  simulate = TRUE)

`nrcol`	a non-negative integer specifying the number of colors to be used (defaults to the length of `10`, if not specified).
`method`	character string implying the method for color selection to be used ("RGB" uses a grid in the RGB space (default), "Lab" uses a grid in the Lab space, "goldenratio" uses the golden ratio as spacing between colors in the HSV color space).
`bw`	logical: if `TRUE` (`FALSE` by default), the colors "black" and "white" are removed from the resulting colorpalette.
`show`	logical: if `TRUE` (by default), the resulting colorpalettes are depicted in an R plot.
`simulate`	logical: if `TRUE` (by default), a converted colorpalettes are additionally depicted to simulate dichromat vision according to http://www.daltonize.org (see `daltonize`).

distinctcolors returns a vector containing R built-in colors in hexadecimal representation.
