"""
matplotlib gives you 4 ways to specify colors,
1) as a single letter string, ala matlab
2) as an html style hex string or html color name
3) as an R,G,B tuple, where R,G,B, range from 0-1
4) as a string representing a floating point number
from 0 to 1, corresponding to shades of gray.
See help(colors) for more info.
