Hi Jim,
Thank you! Your color code does work. I still do not understand how red to
yellow in RGB space translates to cs1=c(1,1),cs2=(c(0,1),cs3=0. In other
words, I have RGB values for red and yellow. How do I go from there to the
code you sent?
Another question: some of my matrices have missing cells and I do not want
to assign any colors to the missing cells. The following code gives me
error. I am trying to use the output (cellcol) to the
function color2D.matplot.
> cellcol<-matrix("#000000", nrow=nrow(plotdata),ncol=ncol(plotdata))
> cellcol[x<0.33]<-color.scale(x[x<0.33],c(1,0.8),c(0,0.8),0, na.color=NA)
Error in cellcol[x < 0.33] <- color.scale(x[x < 0.33], c(1, 0.8), c(0, :
NAs are not allowed in subscripted assignments
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In min(x) : no non-missing arguments to min; returning Inf
2: In max(x) : no non-missing arguments to max; returning -Inf
