Sequential schemes
Sequential color schemes are available as continuous interpolators (often used with d3.scaleSequential) and as discrete schemes (often used with d3.scaleOrdinal).
Each discrete scheme, such as d3.schemeBlues, is represented as an array of arrays of hexadecimal color strings. The kth element of this array contains the color scheme of size k; for example, d3.schemeBlues[9] contains an array of nine strings representing the nine colors of the blue sequential color scheme. Sequential color schemes support a size k ranging from 3 to 9.
To create a sequential discrete nine-color scale using the Blues color scheme:
const color = d3.scaleOrdinal(d3.schemeBlues[9]);To create a sequential continuous color scale using the Blues color scheme:
const color = d3.scaleSequential(d3.interpolateBlues);interpolateBlues(t)
