## Summary

CET-C1 is a cyclic colormap from the colorcet collection. Inspect its perceptual lightness, chroma, and hue profile on colorcurio.us.

Cyclic magenta-red-yellow-blue-magenta.

## Perceptual profile (OKLCh)

- Lightness: 0.782 → 0.782 (range 0.284, min 0.498, max 0.782); non-monotonic; midpoint 0.751
- Chroma: min 0.039, max 0.259, mean 0.175
- Hue: 327.6° → 326.6° (span 359.0°), path monotonic-cw; quadrants: magenta, rose, red, orange, yellow, chartreuse, green, mint, cyan, azure, blue, violet
- Endpoint temperature: cool → cool
- Perceptual ΔE: total 220.3, mean/step 0.864, max step 2.113, smoothness 0.579, speed 0.864
