[R] Odp: Colours in R

[Petr PIKAL]

Hi

Maybe there is some neat function for it but

apply(data.frame(t(col2rgb(colours()[1:10]))),1,function(x) 
paste(as.character.hexmode(x),collapse=""))

gives you hex values for colours specified.

Then you can use colours()[1:10] to get names (or you can invent your own) 
and you can print real colours in a plot by using filled rectangle.

Regards
Petr
