Hi,
You can use the "hsv" function to create a cyclic rainbow color palette, as the HSV color space is naturally cyclic with respect to hue.
% Number of colors you want in the palette
numColors = 256;
% Generate a cyclic rainbow color palette
rainbowPalette = hsv(numColors);
% Example: Use the palette for a plot
x = linspace(0, 2*pi, 1000);
y = sin(x);
scatter(x, y, 10, mod(1:1000, numColors)+1, 'filled');
colormap(rainbowPalette);
colorbar;
In this example, "hsv(numColors)" generates a "numColors x 3" matrix, where each row is an RGB color corresponding to a color in the HSV color wheel. The colors range from red, through all the hues of the rainbow, back to red, creating a cycle.
You can read more about the "hsv" function here: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/ref/hsv.html
Hope this helps!

If you want to always ensure that the ends are the same color regardless of the length of the map, you can just append that tuple.
ncolors = 9;
CT = hsv(ncolors);
CT = CT([1:end 1],:);
image(permute(CT,[1 3 2]))
set(gca,'ydir','normal')
... of course this makes anything you do with the map ambiguous, since the same color maps to two distinct values.
Despite casual appearances, it's also no longer cyclic, since it has a duplicate red element.
image(permute([CT;CT],[1 3 2]))
set(gca,'ydir','normal')
This is something that might be more justifiable with a really long colormap, but for a short discrete color table, I don't think it makes sense.
