Fire and/or Custom Colormap Function

Use the 'fire' colormap in Matlab, or create your own.

Description

FIRE Blue-Purple Hot colormap

FIRE(M) returns an M-by-3 matrix containing a "fire" colormap.

FIRE, by itself, is the same length as the current figure's colormap. If no figure exists, MATLAB creates one.

To add this colormap as a default map, use 'addpath' with the directory containing 'fire.m'.

To reset the colormap of the current figure use: colormap(fire)
