Get Colors

Returns the colors of the current color palette.

rainbow_hcl.colors(n=11, fixup=None, alpha=None,
                   **kwargs)

nint: Number of colors which should be returned, defaults to 11.
fixupNone, bool: should sRGB colors be corrected if they lie outside the defined color space? If None the fixup parameter from the object will be used. Can be set to True or False to explicitly control the fixup here.
alphaNone, float, list, or numpy.ndarray: Allows to add an transparency (alpha channel) to the colors. Can be a single float, a list, or a numpy array. If a list or array is provided it must be of length 1 or of length n and be convertible to float, providing values between 0.0 (full opacity) and 1.0 (full transparency)
**kwargs: Currently allows for rev = True to reverse the colors.

list: Returns a list of str with n colors from the color palette.
