CDF, matplotlib - not enough colors for plot, python

Question

Here is needed to plot CDF for 8 different functions in one plot. The problem that it gives just 7 different colors and the 8 one gives just first blue color again. How to make

Answer 1

I love to read my colors directly from a colormap with this code

def getColor(c, N, idx):
    import matplotlib as mpl
    cmap = mpl.cm.get_cmap(c)
    norm = mpl.colors.Normalize(vmin=0.0, vmax=N - 1)
    return cmap(norm(idx))

Here, c is the name of the colormap (see https://matplotlib.org/examples/color/colormaps_reference.html for a list), N is the number of colors you want in total, and idx is just an index that will yield the specific color.

Then when calling the plot function, just add the color=getColor(c, N, idx) option.
