WHAT IS IT?

Several ways for creating color gradient in NetLogo

HOW IT WORKS

Some functions derive their arguments from NetLogo Colors, other use directly rgb colors and other use the color palette extention.

THINGS TO NOTICE

Some gradients are simpler to generate than others, but the simplicity usualy limits the range and number of colors of the gradient.

THINGS TO TRY

Chantge the colors of the gradients.
