"""
A module for converting numbers or color arguments to *RGB* or *RGBA*

*RGB* and *RGBA* are sequences of, respectively, 3 or 4 floats in the
range 0-1.

This module includes functions and classes for color specification
conversions, and for mapping numbers to colors in a 1-D array of colors called
a colormap. Colormapping typically involves two steps: a data array is first
mapped onto the range 0-1 using an instance of :class:`Normalize` or of a
subclass; then this number in the 0-1 range is mapped to a color using an
instance of a subclass of :class:`Colormap`.  Two are provided here:
:class:`LinearSegmentedColormap`, which is used to generate all the built-in
colormap instances, but is also useful for making custom colormaps, and
:class:`ListedColormap`, which is used for generating a custom colormap from a
list of color specifications.

The module also provides functions for checking whether an object can be
interpreted as a color (:func:`is_color_like`), for converting such an object
to an RGBA tuple (:func:`to_rgba`) or to an HTML-like hex string in the
`#rrggbb` format (:func:`to_hex`), and a sequence of colors to an `(n, 4)`
RGBA array (:func:`to_rgba_array`).  Caching is used for efficiency.

Matplotlib recognizes the following formats to specify a color:

* an RGB or RGBA tuple of float values in ``[0, 1]`` (e.g., ``(0.1, 0.2, 0.5)``
  or  ``(0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 0.3)``);
* a hex RGB or RGBA string (e.g., ``'#0F0F0F'`` or ``'#0F0F0F0F'``);
* a string representation of a float value in ``[0, 1]`` inclusive for gray
  level (e.g., ``'0.5'``);
* one of ``{'b', 'g', 'r', 'c', 'm', 'y', 'k', 'w'}``;
* a X11/CSS4 color name;
* a name from the `xkcd color survey <https://xkcd.com/color/rgb/>`__;
  prefixed with ``'xkcd:'`` (e.g., ``'xkcd:sky blue'``);
* one of ``{'tab:blue', 'tab:orange', 'tab:green',
  'tab:red', 'tab:purple', 'tab:brown', 'tab:pink',
  'tab:gray', 'tab:olive', 'tab:cyan'}`` which are the Tableau Colors from the
  'T10' categorical palette (which is the default color cycle);
* a "CN" color spec, i.e. `'C'` followed by a single digit, which is an index
  into the default property cycle (``matplotlib.rcParams['axes.prop_cycle']``);
  the indexing occurs at artist creation time and defaults to black if the
  cycle does not include color.

All string specifications of color, other than "CN", are case-insensitive.

        Example: suppose you want red to increase from 0 to 1 over

        and blue over the top half.  Then you would use::

        Each row in the table for a given color is a sequence of
        *x*, *y0*, *y1* tuples.  In each sequence, *x* must increase
        monotonically from 0 to 1.  For any input value *z* falling
        between *x[i]* and *x[i+1]*, the output value of a given color
        will be linearly interpolated between *y1[i]* and *y0[i+1]*::

            row i:   x  y0  y1

        cmap : `~matplotlib.colors.Colormap` instance

def from_levels_and_colors(levels, colors, extend='neither'):
    """
    A helper routine to generate a cmap and a norm instance which
    behave similar to contourf's levels and colors arguments.

    Parameters
    ----------
    levels : sequence of numbers
        The quantization levels used to construct the :class:`BoundaryNorm`.
        Values ``v`` are quantizized to level ``i`` if
        ``lev[i] <= v < lev[i+1]``.
    colors : sequence of colors
        The fill color to use for each level. If `extend` is "neither" there
        must be ``n_level - 1`` colors. For an `extend` of "min" or "max" add
        one extra color, and for an `extend` of "both" add two colors.
    extend : {'neither', 'min', 'max', 'both'}, optional
        The behaviour when a value falls out of range of the given levels.
        See :func:`~matplotlib.pyplot.contourf` for details.

    Returns

    (cmap, norm) : tuple containing a :class:`Colormap` and a \
