    """
    Utility for creating continuous palette from the cubehelix system.

    This produces a colormap with linearly-decreasing (or increasing)
    brightness. That means that information will be preserved if printed to
    black and white or viewed by someone who is colorblind.

    Parameters
    ----------
    start : float (0 <= start <= 3)
        The hue at the start of the helix.
    rot : float
        Rotations around the hue wheel over the range of the palette.
    gamma : float (0 <= gamma)
        Gamma factor to emphasize darker (gamma < 1) or lighter (gamma > 1)
        colors.
    hue : float (0 <= hue <= 1)
        Saturation of the colors.
    dark : float (0 <= dark <= 1)
        Intensity of the darkest color in the palette.
    light : float (0 <= light <= 1)
        Intensity of the lightest color in the palette.
    reverse : bool
        If True, the palette will go from dark to light.

    Returns
    -------
    out : function
        Continuous color palette that takes a single
        :class:`int` parameter ``n`` and returns ``n``
        equally spaced colors.
