What implications does the following statement have on processing raster images in the HTML5 Canvas?
Note that these values are not grouped by row, or even by pixel. It's up to us to keep track of where each pixel begins and ends, and where each row begins and ends.

Study Notes
- These notes cover the essentials of raster image processing in HTML5 Canvas.
Images in Canvas
- Canvas enables loading images, showing them in browsers, and accessing pixel data, which allows for image analysis and modification at the pixel level.
- When an image loads, the Canvas API converts colors to 32-bit RGBA, regardless of the original color model.
- Each pixel consists of four color components: red, green, blue, and alpha (transparency), with values ranging from 0 to 255.
Getting Pixel Data from Image
- The rgba variable pertains to an array of RGBA values for all image pixels.
- The values in the array is not grouped in any way
- Maintaining track of where each pixel and row begins and ends is important.
- The pixel data is structured as:
rgba = [r, g, b, a, r, g, b, a, r, g, b, a, r, g, b, a, r, g, b, a, r, g, b, a, ...] - Each group of four values (r, g, b, a) represents a single pixel and each of these values ranges between 0 and 255.
- The rgba array contains no data about the image's dimensions; this can be accessed from the image object itself.
- The number of pixels in the row is obtained by:
image.width - RGBA data applies to the entire row and is multiplied by 4 to represent each of the RGBA values per pixel.
- Loop Syntax:
for (let i=0; i < rgba.length/4; i++) { // divide length by 4 to get one pixel at a time
// the following code sets all pixels in the image to red
rgba[i*4 + 0] = 255; // red channel
rgba[i*4 + 1] = 0; // green channel
rgba[i*4 + 2] = 0; // blue channel
rgba[i*4 + 3] = 255; // alpha channel
}
context.putImageData(imageData, 0,0); // overwrite the old image with the new, modified one.
- You'll need:
canvascontextimageimageDatargba- Getting rows and columns of pixels:
for (let y=0; y < imageData.height; y++) { // rows - y coordinate
for (let x=0; x < imageData.width; x++) { // columns - x coordinate
let i = y*imageData.width + x; // get index of pixel from x and y coordinates
if (y % 2 == 0) { // if row is even-numbered
rgba[i*4 + 3] = 0; // alpha channel
}
}
}
context.putImageData(imageData, 0,0);
