Pequod continuous colour / fill scales for ggplot2

scale_colour_pequod_c(palette = "log", reverse = FALSE, ...)

scale_fill_pequod_c(palette = "log", reverse = FALSE, ...)

Arguments

palette	Palette name. See [palette_pequod()].
reverse	Reverse the palette order.
...	Further arguments passed to [ggplot2::scale_color_gradientn()] / [ggplot2::scale_fill_gradientn()].

Value

A ggplot2 scale.

Examples

library(ggplot2)
ggplot(faithfuld, aes(waiting, eruptions, fill = density)) +
