Summary

Description
English: A logarithmic representation of the visible light spectrum. Colour ranges were taken from 'CRC Handbook of Fundamental Spectroscopic Correlation Charts.' (CRC Press, 2005.). RGB equivalents from the wikipedia colour pages were used for the gradients. See image:Linear_visible_spectrum.svg for the procedure used to generate the gradient.
