\title{Color Palette Demonstration Plot}
\usage{
demoplot(x, type = c("map", "heatmap", "scatter", "spine", "bar", "pie",
"perspective", "mosaic", "lines"), ...)
}
\arguments{
\item{x}{character vector containing color hex codes.}
\item{type}{character indicating the type of demonstration plot.}
\item{\dots}{currently not used.}
}
\value{
\code{demoplot} returns invisibly what the respective base graphics
functions return that are called internally.
}
\description{
Demonstration of color palettes in various kinds of statistical graphics.
}
\details{
To demonstrate how different kinds of color palettes work in different
kinds of statistical displays, \code{demoplot} provides a simple convenience
interface to some base graphics with (mostly artificial) data sets.
All types of demos can deal with arbitrarily many colors. However, some
displays are much more suitable for a low number of colors (e.g., the pie
chart) while others work better with more colors (e.g., the heatmap).
}
\examples{
## all built-in demos with the same sequential heat color palette
par(mfrow = c(3, 3))
cl <- sequential_hcl(5, "Heat")
for (i in c("map", "heatmap", "scatter", "spine", "bar", "pie", "perspective", "mosaic", "lines")) {
demoplot(cl, type = i)
}
## qualitative palettes: light pastel colors for shading areas (pie)
## and darker colorful palettes for points or lines
demoplot(qualitative_hcl(4, "Pastel 1"), type = "pie")
demoplot(qualitative_hcl(4, "Set 2"), type = "scatter")
demoplot(qualitative_hcl(4, "Dark 3"), type = "lines")
## sequential palettes: display almost continuous gradients with
## strong luminance contrasts (heatmap, perspective) and colorful
## sequential palette for spine plot with only a few ordered categories
demoplot(sequential_hcl(99, "Purple-Blue"), type = "heatmap")
demoplot(sequential_hcl(99, "Reds"), type = "perspective")
demoplot(sequential_hcl(4, "Viridis"), type = "spine")
## diverging palettes: display almost continuous gradient with
## strong luminance contrast bringing out the extremes (map),
## more colorful palette with lower luminance contrasts for displays
## with fewer colors (mosaic, bar)
demoplot(diverging_hcl(99, "Tropic", power = 2.5), type = "map")
demoplot(diverging_hcl(5, "Green-Orange"), type = "mosaic")
demoplot(diverging_hcl(5, "Blue-Red 2"), type = "bar")
## some palettes that work well on black backgrounds
par(mfrow = c(2, 3), bg = "black")
demoplot(sequential_hcl(9, "Oslo"), "heatmap")
demoplot(sequential_hcl(9, "Turku"), "heatmap")
demoplot(sequential_hcl(9, "Inferno", rev = TRUE), "heatmap")
demoplot(qualitative_hcl(9, "Set 2"), "lines")
demoplot(diverging_hcl(9, "Berlin"), "scatter")
demoplot(diverging_hcl(9, "Cyan-Magenta", l2 = 20), "lines")
