Eye-catching colors

EcoSense Analytics has built a color perception demo to help data scientists choose fair color palettes. The dataset is from the camera trap in Panama — speed vs. time of day for two rodents: the agouti and the paca.

Not all colors are as eye-catching as others. When some data points are more visually prominent than others, it can bias how you interpret a plot. Each version of the scatter plot uses purple and yellow points, but in one version the purple points are easier to perceive than the yellow points.

Explore the two color versions and determine which statement is true.
