what is the best practise to read and calculate matrices representation 16 x 16 pixels?

Question

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 /* Style Definitions */ table.MsoNormalTable {mso-style-name:Table Normal; mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0; mso-tstyle-colband-size:0; mso-style-noshow:yes; mso-style-priority:99; mso-style-qformat:yes; mso-style-parent:; mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt; mso-para-margin-top:0in; mso-para-margin-right:0in; mso-para-margin-bottom:10.0pt; mso-para-margin-left:0in; line-height:115%; mso-pagination:widow-orphan; font-size:11.0pt; font-family:Calibrisans-serif; mso-ascii-font-family:Calibri; mso-ascii-theme-font:minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family:Times New Roman; mso-fareast-theme-font:minor-fareast; mso-hansi-font-family:Calibri; mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;} hi i'm now doing a program to calculate the pixels for the comparison between two images. both image should have the same size 16 x 16 pixels and in a matrices representation. any suggestion that could help me? does 2-dimensional array is reasonable? because if i do the 2-dimensional array i need to declare 256 variables and if suddenly i need to change the size into 24 x 24 pixels it's gonna be more declaration.... could anyone can give a suggestion? thank you

Hi Friend As I feel what you have done is correct. If you change the size of the matrix then definetely you will have to reassign the values of each and every pixel. I dont think you can stop that by using another way. You can use a class like this. So you can set the values from outside according to OOP concepts. public class MyImage { private int _ImageSize = 16; private double[] _Matrix; public MyImage(int imgsize) { _ImageSize = imgsize; _Matrix = new double[_ImageSize _ImageSize]; } public double this[int x int y] { get { return _Matrix[x y]; } set { _Matrix[x y] = value; } } } Mark Do you like this answer checkbox if this helps you.
