A Discrete Colour Palette

A discrete colour palette. These colours make it easier to create relatively accessible and colour-blind safe visualisation.

jumble

The objective of jumble is to provide a pretty discrete colour palette that is accessible and colourblind safe. The 7 colours are accessible to normal eyes. The first 5 colours of these are colour-blind safe. The first 3 colours of these are greyscale safe.

Installation

Install from CRAN, or development version from GitHub.
