The code sample sets the color of a GameObject's material to a value between white and black, based on the amount of time that has elapsed.
using UnityEngine;public class ColorLerp : MonoBehaviour{    Color lerpedColor = Color.white;    Renderer renderer;    void Start()    {        renderer = GetComponent<Renderer>();    }    void Update()    {        lerpedColor = Color.Lerp(Color.white, Color.black, Mathf.PingPong(Time.time, 1));        renderer.material.color = lerpedColor;    }}
