Description
Color Palettes from Crayon Boxes.
Description
Provides color palettes based on crayon colors since the early 1900s. Colors are based on various crayon colors, sets, and promotional palettes, most of which can be found at <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Crayola_crayon_colors>. All palettes are discrete palettes and are not necessarily color-blind friendly. Provides scales for 'ggplot2' for discrete coloring.
