Defines functions biplot_color

Documented in biplot_color

#' Function for biplotting with no point labels and with
#' points color-coded according to a quantitative variable.
#' For example: the rank of normalization performance.
#' 
#' This function implements biplot for \code{\link[stats]{prcomp}} objects.
#' 
#' @param x \code{\link[stats]{prcomp}} object.
#' @param y numeric. Quantitative values used to color the points. If rank is 
#'   FALSE, all values must be positive integers and less than or equal to the 
#'   length of y.
#' @param rank logical. If TRUE (default) y will be transformed by the rank() 
#'   function
#' @param ties_method character. ties.method used by the rank() function
#' @param choices numeric. 2 principal components to plot. Default to first two
#'   PCs.
#' @param expand numeric. value used to adjust the spread of the arrows
#'   relative to the points.
#' @param ... arguments passed to plot.
#'   
#' @importFrom grDevices colorRampPalette
#' @export
#' 
#' @return Invisibly returns scaled point coordinates used in plot.
