Project

Today Ale and I finally did some serious advance in the fina project. We did a lot of research and we were able to run one part of the project, modifying the image to black and white. Here are some of the webpages we used:

Basic command-lines:

http://www.imagemagick.org/script/command-line-processing.php

Convert input image to b&w/grayscale:

And that’s pretty much it. We will try to finish the project by doing the “second part” about resizing the image tomorrow. In the meantime, you can check our code here.

P.S. Here is how it’s shown in Ubuntu:

After battling with a fatal error (we did google it)

we couldn’t figure out, we asked Ken how we could solve it. Ken found out that we didn’t have a developer library installed (libwebp dev), which was pretty rare. Ken did his magic on the terminal and helped us with the installation of this librarty. After this, we had no more errors and we were finally able to run a test program, and it worked! 

Here’s a proof:

Awesome, right?

After

unnecessarily battling with Windows and Mac for a whole week, we were finally able to install Ubuntu on Mac. We are installing the libraries and making some progress. We’ll update later today after we can compile and run a sample project.

What should you work on?

Week #12 and more partial exams for you.

For this week's readings:
C++ (TC1017) should either be looking at support for your project, ImageMagick C++ libraries are a good start.
Python (TC1014) should be finishing chapter 11 (Dictionaries).
