default color palette for Python-CodePudding

I have a custom color palette i created for my employer

pink = '#E5007E'
pink_80 = '#FFC7E6'
pink_60='#FF8FCC'
aqua='#00B4DF'
aqua_80='#C6F4FF'
pink_40='#FF56B3'
pink_d25='#AC005F'
aqua_60='#8CE9FF'
aqua_40='#53DEFF'
aqua_d25='#0087A7'

color_list = [pink, aqua,
              aqua_80, pink_80,aqua_60, pink_60,aqua_40,pink_40,aqua_d25,pink_d25]

how do i make this the default color palette for all charts going forward? Is there such a way of saying "import color_list" and have matplotlib default to that list?

You need to modify Matplotlib's configuration file, matplotlibrc. This file is stored on various locations, depending on the level you wish to apply your edits (globally, vs single environment). You can find the locations at this

Now, the new color palette is going to be used everytime you load matplotlib.
