Help:Distinguishable colors

For purposes of Lua and Template coding, it is often helpful to have a set of colors each of which can readily be distinguished from one another. (For example Module talk:ImportProtein/Src (gene) needs such a set) Some sources for such color sets were cited on a StackExchange forum:^[1]

The 2010 Colour Alphabet Project proposed 26 "letters" coded by colors, which they stated to be near the maximum number reliably distinguishable. Many of their colors closely resembled Kelly's 22 color set.^[2]
