This repository contains the code for a program that generates square images with symmetrical or asymmetrical patterns. The program is developed as part of the project for the course "Advanced Data Structures and Algorithms" at French-Azerbaijani University.
Computer-generated images have become indispensable in today's digital era, finding applications in entertainment, advertising, and scientific visualization. Creating visually appealing and unique images is a crucial aspect of computer graphics and image processing. This project focuses on generating customized square images with symmetrical or asymmetrical patterns.
The goal is to develop a program that generates square images according to user-defined specifications, such as size, symmetry type, line thickness, and number of images. By leveraging image manipulation principles and randomization techniques, visually striking patterns can be created.
The project utilizes the BMP (Bitmap) file format, a widely adopted format for storing pixel data. By manipulating the pixel values, the program can generate a diverse range of shapes and patterns.
The code includes several structures and definitions to support image generation. Notable ones are:
EDirectionsSymmetry: An enumeration defining the different directions of symmetry for the generated images.bool: A boolean definition with two possible values,falseandtrue.SImageHeader: A structure representing the header of the image file, containing information such as the file type, size, image dimensions, color information, and additional metadata.SImage: A structure representing the image itself, containing a pointer to the pixel data and the image header.
The image generation methodology consists of several steps, including image header initialization, pixel generation, image creation, and image saving. The implementation follows a modular approach, with separate functions for each step.
For image generation, the program takes into account command-line arguments provided by the user, such as output file name, image size, symmetry type, and number of images. The program also supports an optional seed value for reproducibility of generated images.
The code is designed using a set of functions and data structures. The image generation functions are implemented in the image.c source file, including functions for image header initialization, pixel generation, image creation, and image saving.
The main program logic is implemented in the symasym.c source file. It handles the command-line arguments, generates the specified number of images, and saves them to BMP files.
The repository includes example images generated by the program. These images demonstrate the output when generating images with various symmetries and sizes.
To use the program, follow these steps:
- Clone the repository:
git clone https://github.com/Kamal578/DSA2_BMPor download the source code. - Compile the code:
gcc symasym.c image.c -o symasym - Run the program with desired command-line arguments: Example:
./symasym -o output -size 100 -sv -n 5
The image generation program provides a flexible and versatile tool for creating captivating visual patterns. With customizable options for size, symmetry type, and line thickness, users can explore and generate a wide range of unique images. The program's implementation utilizes image manipulation principles and leverages the BMP file format for compatibility and ease of use.
