A JavaScript library for colour data visualization. Easily map numbers to a smooth-transitioning colour legend.
The Rainbow class by default maps the range 0 to 100 (inclusive) to the colours of the rainbow (i.e., a gradient transitioning from red to yellow to lime to blue).
See example.html
var rainbow = new Rainbow(); creates new instance of Rainbow. By default, the number range is from 0 to 100, and the spectrum is a rainbow.
rainbow.colourAt(number); returns the hex colour corresponding to the number. If number is out of range, it returns the appropriate hex colour corresponding to either the minNumber or maxNumber.
rainbow.setSpectrum(colour1, colour2 [,colourN]); sets the spectrum of the Rainbow object. By default, the spectrum is a rainbow. You must have a minimum of two colours, but you can specify more than two colours. Colours can be in the form 'red', 'ff0000', or '#ff0000'. For example, rainbow.setSpectrum('red', 'yellow', 'white'); makes the "Rainbow" a colour gradient from red to yellow to white.
rainbow.setNumberRange(minNumber, maxNumber); sets the number range of the Rainbow object. By default, it is 0 to 100.
