Generates a light colormap of black, red, yellow and white.

Optional. An integer, the colormap length. Defaults to the length of the current colormap. |
A table of RGB triples suitable for the SETCOLORMAP function.
clen = length(getcolormap());
density(ravel(rep(0..(clen-1), 32), clen)');pink
creates a table of 32 x N (where N == colormap length) RBG values and displays the resulting colors. The resulting image is a vertical plot of colors ranging from black (lowest) to white (highest).
W1: cool;showcmap()';scalesoff;label("cool")
W2: copper;showcmap()';scalesoff;label("copper")
W3: hot;showcmap()';scalesoff;label("hotl")
W4: pink;showcmap()';scalesoff;label("pink")
W1, W2, W3 and W4 display 256x32 sequential, dark to light colormaps where 256 is the colormap length. The colormaps are not perceptually uniform.
pink by itself sets the colormap and shading.
a = pink or setcolormap(pink) returns the RGB values. In this case, use SETSHADING to make the new colormap take effect on an existing density or 2D plot.
The PINK colormap produces a smooth gradient that resembles a soft, pastel gray scale with a gentle pink tint. It is often used when a colormap lighter and more delicate than GRAY is desired.
