Economist color palette (discrete)

The nine colors The Economist uses for chart series: blue, cyan, green, yellow, olive, purple, gold, gray, and red, in that order. Red comes last because the house style reserves it for data the chart is making a point about, rather than handing it out as an ordinary series color.

Usage

economist_pal(fill = deprecated())

Arguments

fill

`r lifecycle::badge("deprecated")` No longer has any effect.

Details

A tenth color, "Econ red", is the brighter masthead red used for the tag rectangle and for single-series highlights. It is excluded from this palette; take it from ggthemes_data$economist$main when you need it.
