Hello Shiliang,
please have a look a the manual page for image (access from R by typing
"?image" ). You can specify which colors to use and at which values to
switch colors using the arguments breaks and colors. For example:
image(matrix(rnorm(36),4,9)+20,col=c("red","blue"),breaks=c(-1e5,20,1e5))
basically says: display every cell with a value below 20 in red
(breaks[1:2] specify the interval for "red") and every value above 20 in
blue
(breaks[2:3] specify the interval for "blue").
Regards,
Joern
