GRAY

Purpose:

Generates a black & white colormap.

Syntax:

GRAY(len)

len

Optional. An integer, the colormap length. Defaults to the length of the current colormap.

Returns:

A table of RGB triples suitable for the SETCOLORMAP function.

Example:

clen = length(getcolormap());

density(ravel(rep(0..(clen-1), 32), clen)');

gray;

$image\graypic.gif$

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).

Remarks:

gray by itself sets the colormap and shading.
