Try this to see which colors the codes are: Color <- function(color){ z <- matrix(1:length(color), ncol = length(color)) image(y = seq(1, length(color)), z, col = color, axes = FALSE) text(0, y = z, labels = color, pos = 1, offset = 0, cex = 0.7) }
Color(topo.colors(5)) Color(terrain.colors(10)) You can use levelplot from lattice package too.
