Thread: work?

You may want (need?) to pass width and height to the image_invert().

You probably don't want to call image_invert AGAIN n the call to image_set_data() - that would, assuming it worked, take the image back to original form, since you have already inverted it.

I object to the "sleep" function here - because it makes more sense to use a getchar() or similar function. That is since the getchar() will wait EXACTLY as long as the user needs to view the picture, rather than a too short or too long time - how long does it take someone to inspect the picture - depends on how closely you want to look at it, and who it is, how many times the image have been seen, etc, etc.

invert_image(image_data,width,height);

would i also have to add it here:

Code:

ep100_lib_set_data(invert_image(image_data));

?
thanks

I don't think invert_image() belongs in the ep100_lib_set_data() function at all.

We're thinking, we're thinking . . . hold your horses . . .

Code:

	sleep(5);

	ep100_lib_display_image();

Perhaps you want to delay after you display the image, not before.

Assuming that invert_image()'s prototype looks sort of like this:

Code:

void invert_image(int data[EP100_LIB_MAX_X][EP100_LIB_MAX_Y]);

then you might want something like this:

Code:

invert_image(image_data);
ep100_lib_set_data(image_data);

Have you started writing invert_image() yet? [I have insider information via PMs.]

oooo reaally, wat kind of info. I havent started that one yet, going to start tomorrow on the functions and procedures

here i think i need to enter the width and heigh as well:
invert_image(image_data);

so it wud have to be

invert_image(image_data, width, height);

oooo reaally, wat kind of info.

You asked for it!

1) You will need to find out about how images are stored as pixels,
and how these pixels are often stored in integers.
You should look at how to use the ’<<’ and ’>>’ operators in C
as well as the ’&’ operator for isolating the red, green and blue
components of an image. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixels
Each pixel is a 32 bit integer and has the upper 8 bits as the alpha
channel (which you can ignore) and the lower 8 bits are the blue
pixel value (0-255). So a pixel’s bits are ARGB (from most to least
significant, 8 bits per channel). So you can extract the colours via:
red is ((image_data[row][column]>>16)&0xff)
blue is ((image_data[row][column]>>8)&0xff)
green is ((image_data[row][column])&0xff)
2) You will need to find out how to include the existing library
supplied by me, as well as your library in your compilation "cc"
command. Most of this is handled by the supplied Makefile. Once you
have adjusted this file, you should simply be able to type make &#191;
Or make run &#191; will display the default image.
Or make run IMAGE=images/silhouette_76_small.jpg &#191; will display the
specified image.
See section on Makefiles in:
[edited]
3) Write a C library function that will invert the pixels in an image
whose name is supplied on the command line. The function will IMPORT a
2-D pixel array and EXPORT

Well, if your programatic ESP is strong, you could always use the mind-reading method of figuring out the sizes of the image - but I find that _EVERY_ time I try that trick, it doesn't work quite right - I always get some other random value that isn't matchng the data-size I've got.

Most likely. It depends on how you define invert_image(), of course. But if the prototype is

Code:

void invert_image(int data[EP100_LIB_MAX_X][EP100_LIB_MAX_Y], int width, int height);

then you'd call it just as you have it.
