R: MATLAB multiline plot colors

multiline.plot.colors {matlab} | R Documentation

## MATLAB multiline plot colors

### Description

Creates a vector of colors equivalent to MATLAB's default colors to use for multiline plots.

### Usage

    multiline.plot.colors()

### Details

This is equivalent to the MATLAB command

        get(gca, 'ColorOrder')

### Value

Returns vector of color names. This can be used either to create a user-defined color palette for subsequent graphics, a `col=` specification in graphics functions, or in `par`.

### Note

Method should be considered experimental and will most likely be removed and replaced with similar functionality in the near future.
