Compare with [gnuplot image](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Gnuplot_HSV_gradient.png)

It looks similar. sawtooth-shaped lightness profile made up of 6 ramps ( segments)

Features of rainbow gradient:
* non monotone ( see black curve) , cyclic, multi hue
* non monotone ( see black curve) ,
* cyclic
* multi hue
* complex = consist of 6 monotone segments ( ramps). Graph of the lightness looks like [saw with plain tooth pattern](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crosscut_saw) or [triangle sawtooth wave](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sawtooth_wave)
