'Inverting' a colormap (was "Next problem: pixel-to-pixel alpha variation")

No one has a shareable code example of how to invert a colormap to an RGB array?

Is this what you are looking for? (outputs RGBA but just override the
alpha or extract the RGB part)

In [9]: import matplotlib.cm as cm

In [10]: x = np.arange(0, 1, 0.1)

In [11]: print cm.jet(x)
[[ 0. 0. 0.5 1. ]
[ 0. 0. 0.9456328 1. ]
[ 0. 0.3 1. 1. ]
[ 0. 0.69215686 1. 1. ]
[ 0.16129032 1. 0.80645161 1. ]
[ 0.49019608 1. 0.47754586 1. ]
[ 0.80645161 1. 0.16129032 1. ]
[ 1. 0.77051561 0. 1. ]
[ 1. 0.40740741 0. 1. ]
[ 0.9456328 0.02977487 0. 1. ]]
