#' Evenly spaced colours for discrete data
#'
#' Maps each level to an evenly spaced hue on the colour wheel.
#' It does not generate colour-blind safe palettes.
#'
#' @param na.value Colour to use for missing values
#' @inheritDotParams discrete_scale -aesthetics -expand -position -scale_name
#' @param aesthetics Character string or vector of character strings listing the
#'   name(s) of the aesthetic(s) that this scale works with. This can be useful, for
#'   example, to apply colour settings to the `colour` and `fill` aesthetics at the
#'   same time, via `aesthetics = c("colour", "fill")`.

#' Discrete colour scales
#'
#' The default discrete colour scale. Defaults to [scale_fill_hue()]/[scale_fill_brewer()]
#' unless `type` (which defaults to the `ggplot2.discrete.fill`/`ggplot2.discrete.colour` options)
#' is specified.
#'
#' @param ... Additional parameters passed on to the scale type,
#' @param type One of the following:
#'   * A character vector of color codes. The codes are used for a 'manual' color
#'   scale as long as the number of codes exceeds the number of data levels
#'   (if there are more levels than codes, [scale_colour_hue()]/[scale_fill_hue()]
#'   are used to construct the default scale). If this is a named vector, then the color values
#'   will be matched to levels based on the names of the vectors. Data values that
#'   don't match will be set as `na.value`.
#'   * A list of character vectors of color codes. The minimum length vector that exceeds the
#'   number of data levels is chosen for the color scaling. This is useful if you
#'   want to change the color palette based on the number of levels.
#'   * A function that returns a discrete colour/fill scale (e.g., [scale_fill_hue()],
#'   [scale_fill_brewer()], etc).
