Different color for each line

I would lilke to get for each line a different color.

the table features by 10 columns and 20 rows.

new_table = [t1 medienews]
plot(new_table{1, 2:end}', new_table{2:end, 2:end}',"LineWidth",2,'color',); 
legend(new_table.t1{2:end}, 'location', 'eastoutside')

Simple question....read about plot.

Yes, of course, as result I have 20 line with different color, but it is not for everyone. For eaxample I would like after red another color, not blue again (see LAZ and then LIG, as well as SAR and SIC)

% generate some random data
x = rand(10, 20);
% Generate different colors
cmap = jet(20);   
% Change the colororder
colororder(cmap);

plot(x)
legend(string(1:20), "Location", "eastoutside")

For distinguishable colors you will need to use a more suitable colormap, e.g. TAB20 here:

or perhaps generate your own colormap to suit your document colorscheme:
