Before you keep reading...

Runestone Academy can only continue if we get support from individuals like you. As a student you are well aware of the high cost of textbooks. Our mission is to provide great books to you for free, but we ask that you consider a $10 donation, more if you can or less if $10 is a burden.

Before you keep reading...

Making great stuff takes time and $$. If you appreciate the book you are reading now and want to keep quality materials free for other students please consider a donation to Runestone Academy. We ask that you consider a $10 donation, but if you can give more thats great, if $10 is too much for your budget we would be happy with whatever you can afford as a show of support.

11.5. Changing Step 5: Increasing and decreasing color values

Below is a selection of images that you can use in the programs in this section.

beach.jpg	baby.jpg	vangogh.jpg	swan.jpg

puppy.jpg	kitten.jpg	girl.jpg	motorcycle.jpg

gal1.jpg	guy1.jpg	gal2.jpg

First example: Let’s change STEP 5, so that we decrease the red by 50%.

# STEP 1: USE THE IMAGE LIBRARY from image import * # STEP 2: PICK THE IMAGE img = Image("beach.jpg") # STEP 3: LOOP THROUGH THE PIXELS pixels = img.getPixels(); for p in pixels: # STEP 4: GET THE DATA r = p.getRed() # STEP 5: MODIFY THE COLOR p.setRed(r * 0.5); # STEP 6: UPDATE THE IMAGE img.updatePixel(p) # STEP 7: SHOW THE RESULT win = ImageWin(img.getWidth(),img.getHeight()) img.draw(win)

Try the program above on some of the other images by changing the name of the image file on line 5. What effect does it always have? Is this what you expected when we decrease the red?

We can increase the red in a similar way. Let’s change STEP 5, so that we increase the red by 150%.

# STEP 1: USE THE IMAGE LIBRARY from image import * # STEP 2: PICK THE IMAGE img = Image("beach.jpg") # STEP 3: LOOP THROUGH THE PIXELS pixels = img.getPixels() for p in pixels: # STEP 4: GET THE DATA r = p.getRed() # STEP 5: MODIFY THE COLOR p.setRed(r * 1.5) # STEP 6: UPDATE THE IMAGE img.updatePixel(p) # STEP 7: SHOW THE RESULT win = ImageWin(img.getWidth(),img.getHeight()) img.draw(win)

Try the program above on some of the other images by changing the name of the image file on line 5. What effect does it always have? Is this what you expected when you increase the red? What happens if you increase two colors at the same time?

Another way to get a similar effect to increasing the red, is to decrease the green and blue. Figure out how to do that in the program above and then use that information to drag the code blocks below from the left to the right in the correct order with the correct indention.

        from image import *
---
img = Image("beach.jpg")
---
pixels = img.getPixels()
for p in pixels:
---
    g = p.getGreen()
    b = p.getBlue()
---
    p.setGreen(g * 0.75)
    p.setBlue(b * 0.75)
---
    img.updatePixel(p)
---
win = ImageWin(img.getWidth(),img.getHeight())
img.draw(win)
        

Decrease the red by .5 and increase the blue and green by .5 in puppy.jpg.

# STEP 1: USE THE IMAGE LIBRARY from image import * # STEP 2: PICK THE IMAGE img = Image("puppy.jpg") # STEP 3: LOOP THROUGH THE PIXELS pixels = img.getPixels() for p in pixels: # STEP 4: GET THE DATA r = p.getRed() g = p.getGreen() b = p.getBlue() # STEP 5: MODIFY THE COLOR p.setRed(r * .5) p.setGreen(g * 1.5) p.setBlue(b * 1.5) # STEP 6: UPDATE THE IMAGE img.updatePixel(p) # STEP 7: SHOW THE RESULT win = ImageWin(img.getWidth(),img.getHeight()) img.draw(win)
