  • So i take a pic, pixelate it so its roughly 40x40, then I posterize it so it only has a limited palette, but then how do I know RGB is in each of the squares? - ie how do i get a table like:

    Row1,Col1 = RGB 85 68 52
    Row1,Col2 = RGB 86 68 68

    etc

  • Matlab does it I seem to remember. Probably only useful if you happen to be doing a maths degree.

  • Nah, Matlab is widely used by engineering students too, it's nice to quickly write code that does useful stuff, and there are a few super useful, well-maintained toolboxes.

    Unfortunately you can realistically only really use it as a student, comparatively few companies cough up the money for Matlab (licenses are VERY expensive) when you can usually do it in Python etc. too. That being said, I've been told naughty people have found ways around the licensing thing for their private use. Still, installing it for this purpose it's a bit like rigging up a death star to hunt ducks.
