colormap中的内嵌彩色模块和调用方式

内嵌彩色模块代码：

import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt

# Have colormaps separated into categories:
# http://matplotlib.org/examples/color/colormaps_reference.html

cmaps = [('Perceptually Uniform Sequential',
 ['viridis', 'inferno', 'plasma', 'magma']),
 ('Sequential', ['Blues', 'BuGn', 'BuPu',
 'GnBu', 'Greens', 'Greys', 'Oranges', 'OrRd',
 'PuBu', 'PuBuGn', 'PuRd', 'Purples', 'RdPu',
 'Reds', 'YlGn', 'YlGnBu', 'YlOrBr', 'YlOrRd']),
 ('Sequential (2)', ['afmhot', 'autumn', 'bone', 'cool',
 'copper', 'gist_heat', 'gray', 'hot',
 'pink', 'spring', 'summer', 'winter']),
 ('Diverging', ['BrBG', 'bwr', 'coolwarm', 'PiYG', 'PRGn', 'PuOr',
 'RdBu', 'RdGy', 'RdYlBu', 'RdYlGn', 'Spectral',
 'seismic']),
 ('Qualitative', ['Accent', 'Dark2', 'Paired', 'Pastel1',
 'Pastel2', 'Set1', 'Set2', 'Set3']),
 ('Miscellaneous', ['gist_earth', 'terrain', 'ocean', 'gist_stern',
 'brg', 'CMRmap', 'cubehelix',
 'gnuplot', 'gnuplot2', 'gist_ncar',
 'nipy_spectral', 'jet', 'rainbow',
 'gist_rainbow', 'hsv', 'flag', 'prism'])]

nrows = max(len(cmap_list) for cmap_category, cmap_list in cmaps)
gradient = np.linspace(0, 1, 256)
gradient = np.vstack((gradient, gradient))


def plot_color_gradients(cmap_category, cmap_list):
 fig, axes = plt.subplots(nrows=nrows)
 fig.subplots_adjust(top=0.95, bottom=0.01, left=0.2, right=0.99)
 axes[0].set_title(cmap_category + ' colormaps', fontsize=14)

 for ax, name in zip(axes, cmap_list):
 ax.imshow(gradient, aspect='auto', cmap=plt.get_cmap(name))
 pos = list(ax.get_position().bounds)
 x_text = pos[0] - 0.01
 y_text = pos[1] + pos[3] / 2.
 fig.text(x_text, y_text, name, va='center', ha='right', fontsize=10)

 # Turn off *all* ticks & spines, not just the ones with colormaps.
 for ax in axes:
 ax.set_axis_off()


for cmap_category, cmap_list in cmaps:
 plot_color_gradients(cmap_category, cmap_list)

plt.show()
生成的彩色图像：
常用的：

实例代码：

import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
x= list(range(0,1000,2))
y= list(range(1,501))
plt.scatter(x,y,c=x,cmap= plt.cm.flag,alpha=0.5,s=20)
plt.show()
图像：

注释：c=“” 让图像中的颜色随着某个数值变化
     cmap=plt.cm.rainbow  彩色映射的图例，rainbow 处写colormap图像中前面的代码即可出现相应的映射。
