with which you can make your pallete be anything you want. The 
examples given there will point you to several pre-defined palletes.

trying now.

      rainbow(n, s = 1, v = 1, start = 0, end = max(1,n - 1)/n, gamma = 1)
      heat.colors(n)
      terrain.colors(n)
      topo.colors(n)
      cm.colors(n)
