ColorSelect for Loop-Based Plotting

Provides up to 125 colors, with the goal of keeping adjacent colors distinct.

You are now following this Submission

ColorSelect provides a pseudorandomized color vector for an input between 1 and 125. Higher or negative numbers will repeat. All colors will not be distinct.
Calling ColorSelect with no argument produces a demo plot, showing all possible colors. Calling ColorSelect with a single argument will produce a color vector that can be used with various plotting functions.
An example of how to call ColorSelect is contained in the function, lines 19-27. Additionally, it is possible to comment out line 35 in case a color gradient is desired.
