Oct 13 Reflection

• In the previous lesson we came up with a simple encoding scheme for B&W images. What if we wanted to have color?
• In the previous activity we could use binary to create images because it was a collection of 1/0s or black/whites. In this way we could create images in black and white by making the shape of the image in black and white squares. To make color I think that you would have to define the height and width first then define color of the next x pixels then give the 1/0 code of it and then change over to another color by indicating the next color. Not exactly sure about it though.
• Devise an encoding scheme for color in an image file. How would you represent color for each pixel?
• For example 1111 might be Blue and so give the height and width then type 1111 for the next set of pixels to be blue. 
• How many different colors could you represent? Do you have a particular order to the colors?
• no particular order of colors but technically by assigning a number to a color you can represent any color. 
• What are some of the difficulties of representing color?
• The color could be confused for the actually picture code and or vice versa leaving certain parts out or shifting the rest of the code down changing the entire picture.
