How do I generate a mapping from numbers to colors in R?

In R, I can easily generate a color ramp, for example colorRampPalette. The following produces a sequence of five colors, from blue to red:

> mypal <- colo

    Here's a map2color function:

    map2color<-function(x,pal,limits=NULL){
        if(is.null(limits)) limits=range(x)
        pal[findInterval(x,seq(limits[1],limits[2],length.out=length(pal)+1), all.inside=TRUE)]
    }
    
    
     map2color(0:11,rainbow(200),limits=c(1,10))
    [1] "#FF0000FF" "#FF0000FF" "#FFA800FF" "#ADFF00FF" "#05FF00FF" "#00FFA3FF"
    [7] "#00ABFFFF" "#0003FFFF" "#A600FFFF" "#FF00B0FF" "#FF0008FF" "#FF0008FF"
     map2color(0:11,rainbow(200))
    [1] "#FF0000FF" "#FF8A00FF" "#EBFF00FF" "#61FF00FF" "#00FF29FF" "#00FFB3FF"
    [7] "#00BAFFFF" "#0030FFFF" "#5900FFFF" "#E300FFFF" "#FF0091FF" "#FF0008FF"
    
    
    mypal <- colorRampPalette( c( "blue", "red" ) )( 5 )
    x <- c( 1, 9, 8.5, 3, 3.4, 6.2 )
    map2color(x,mypal)
    "#0000FF" "#FF0000" "#FF0000" "#3F00BF" "#3F00BF" "#BF003F"
    

    I needed something like this to create a colorramp that would be consistent across different samples of data, so I added an xlim parameter. Thanks for the reminder of the findInterval function in your question.

    The simplest thing I can think of is discretizing your variable x with cut and then using the resultant factor to index a color Palettes like heat.colors or cm.colors

    f <- function(x,n=10){
        heat.colors(n)[cut(x,n)]
    }
    

    see ?heat.colors for more details of Palettes.

    This function will give you are color vector corresponding to x of varying granularity proportional to n.

    My colourscheme package on R-Forge does that:

    https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/colourscheme/

    its primary purpose is to create functions that map numeric values (not just integer colour numbers) to colours. The vignette is the best documentation once you've got it installed.

    You can try

    > colorRampPalette(c('blue', 'red'))(length(x))[rank(x)]
    [1] "#0000FF" "#FF0000" "#CC0032" "#3300CC" "#660099" "#990065"
