# ColorBrewer for Python

This module contains the colors from [Cynthia Brewer][cab38]'s [ColorBrewer][cb] packaged
for easy import and reuse in Python.

## API

The API attempts to follow Color Brewer as closely as possible:

- All color systems are all available in the module namespace.
- Additionally, they are organized into three groups to be used depending on how you
  want to steer the viewer to interpret the data:
    - `sequential`: ordered, with contrast peaking on either end; further subdivided into
        `multihue` and `singlehue`.
    - `divergent`: ordered, with contrast peaking in the middle as well as either end.
    - `qualitative`: unordered, with contrast at every step, ideal for categorical data.
- The color systems offer their continuum broken into waypoints. All offer all breakdowns
  between 3 and 9 color points; the `divergent` systems usually have entries for 3 through 11.
