## ExperimentColorMap class

### Description

ExperimentColorMap class

### Usage

    ExperimentColorMap(assays = list(), colData = list(),
      rowData = list(), all_discrete = list(assays = NULL, colData = NULL,
      rowData = NULL), all_continuous = list(assays = NULL, colData = NULL,
      rowData = NULL), global_discrete = NULL, global_continuous = NULL,
      ...)

### Arguments

`assays` | List of colormaps for `assays`.
`colData` | List of colormaps for `colData`.
`rowData` | List of colormaps for `rowData`.
`all_discrete` | Colormaps applied to all undefined categorical `assays`, `colData`, and `rowData`, respectively.
`all_continuous` | Colormaps applied to all undefined continuous `assays`, `colData`, and `rowData`, respectively.
`global_discrete` | Colormap applied to all undefined categorical covariates.
`global_continuous` | Colormap applied to all undefined continuous covariates.
`...` | additional arguments passed on to the `ExperimentColorMap` constructor

### Details

Colormaps must all be functions that take at least one argument: the number of (named) colours to return as a `character` vector. This argument may be ignored in the body of the colormap function to produce constant colormaps.

### Value

An object of class `ExperimentColorMap`

### Categorical colormaps

The default categorical colormap emulates the default ggplot2 categorical color palette (Credit: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8197559/emulate-ggplot2-default-color-palette). This palette returns a set of colors sampled in steps of equal size that correspond to approximately equal perceptual changes in color:

    function(n) {
        hues=seq(15, 375, length=(n + 1))
        hcl(h=hues, l=65, c=100)[seq_len(n)]
    }

To change the palette for all categorical variables, users must supply a colormap that returns a similar value; namely, an unnamed character vector of length `n`. For instance, using the base R palette `rainbow.colors`

    function(n) {
        rainbow(n)
    }

### Accessors

In the following code snippets, `x` is an `ExperimentColorMap` object. If the colormap can not immediately be found in the appropriate slot, `discrete` is a `logical(1)` that indicates whether the default colormap returned should be categorical `TRUE` or continuous (`FALSE`, default).

`assayColorMap(x, i, ..., discrete=FALSE)`:

  Get an `assays` colormap.

`colDataColorMap(x, i, ..., discrete=FALSE)`:

  Get a `colData` colormap.

`rowDataColorMap(x, i, ..., discrete=FALSE)`:

  Get a `rowData` colormap.

### Setters

In the following code snippets, `x` is an `ExperimentColorMap` object, and `i` is a character or numeric index.

`assayColorMap(x, i, ...) <- value`:

  Set an `assays` colormap.

`colDataColorMap(x, i, ...) <- value`:

  Set a `colData` colormap.

`rowDataColorMap(x, i, ...) <- value`:

  Set a `rowData` colormap.

`assay(x, i, ...) <- value`:

  Alias. Set an `assays` colormap.
