Some recent exploration by the NUMA team in the sunken atatis, recovered a photograph
showing that the atlantis people used to paint their pyramids:

Back to reality, I started a project to minimize the number of nodes/colour to build a
colour gradient. The about image uses a nine colour gradient.
I want some ideas how to minimize such a gradient.
The landscape is the famous tutorial4.tgd
What I want you to do, is creating a network with as few node as possible, connecting the input node,
the 9 colour nodes and the Final Colour node.
The network must fullfill the following conditions:
1) collating, i.e. if the input value is zero, the final colour must be Colour 0
if the input value is 1/8, the final colour must be Colour 1,
e.t.c
the result of input value 1, is undefined.
2) the value of Final Colour if the input value is between N/8 and N+1/8 must
be between Colour N and Colour N+1. It is not required to be linear, and might
be influenced by the other colours.
In my network, which is hidden in the internal network of the group, I uses a linear
interpolation between the colours.
Good hunting ;D
