function newmap = bluewhitered(m)
%BLUEWHITERED   Blue, white, and red color map.
%   BLUEWHITERED(M) returns an M-by-3 matrix containing a blue to white
%   to red colormap, with white corresponding to the CAXIS value closest
%   to zero.  This colormap is most useful for images and surface plots
%   with positive and negative values.  BLUEWHITERED, by itself, is the
%   same length as the current colormap.
%
%   Examples:
%   ------------------------------
%   figure
%   imagesc(peaks(250));
%   colormap(bluewhitered(256)), colorbar
%
%   figure
%   imagesc(peaks(250), [0 8])
%   colormap(bluewhitered), colorbar
%
%   figure
%   imagesc(peaks(250), [-6 0])
%   colormap(bluewhitered), colorbar
%
%   figure
%   surf(peaks)
%   colormap(bluewhitered)
%   axis tight
