Description: Provides color palettes that approximate the University of
        Notre Dame brand colors, together with 'ggplot2' discrete color
        and fill scales. The default palette leads with six Notre Dame
        brand colors that read clearly on a white background and
        extends through seven former Notre Dame brand colors,
        interpolating when more colors are needed than the brand
        supplies. The palette is intended for statistical visualization
        and psychometric analysis: the white-safe ordering keeps
        plotted categories legible, and the near-white-to-navy ramps
        suit continuous quantities such as correlations and factor
        loadings. A colorblind-friendly ordering of the Notre Dame
        colors themselves (arranged so the colors stay distinguishable
        under simulated deuteranopia, protanopia, and tritanopia), the
        former colors as a standalone palette, the four near-white
        brand tints (plus six informal soft backgrounds) for
        backgrounds and sequential ramps, a reference table of every
        color with brand and role labels, and a palette-preview helper
        are also provided. A matching R Markdown stylesheet, built from
        the same colors so a report and its figures share one brand
        palette, themes HTML and 'shiny' output. The colors approximate
        those described in the University's branding guidelines
        (<https://onmessage.nd.edu/university-branding/colors/>). This
        is an independent project and is not affiliated with or
        endorsed by the University of Notre Dame.
