Colors
Colors in R can be defined by name (blue, black, darkgoldenrod, cornsilk, etc.), according to RGB values, according to HSL and HCL values (variously, permutations of hue, saturation, chroma and luminescence, see: Wikipedia:HSL and HSV and Wikipedia:Munsell color system for more information). Most of these values are freely definable either as decimal values between 0 to 1 or hexadecimal values between 0 and F.
See the colors command for a list of built in colros.
See rgb, hsv and hcl commands for more on defining custom colors.
See heat.colors, topo.colors and rainbow for automatic generation of appealing color spectra.
