image
picture

   1.  Data representing a two-dimensional scene.
   A digital image is composed of pixels arranged in a
   rectangular array with a certain height and width.  Each pixel
   may consist of one or more bits of information, representing
   the brightness of the image at that point and possibly
   including colour information encoded as RGB triples.

   Images are usually taken from the real world via a digital
   camera, frame grabber, or scanner; or they may be
   generated by computer, e.g. by ray tracing software.

   See also image formats, image processing.

   2.  The image (or range) of a function is the
   set of values obtained by applying the function to all
   elements of its domain.  So, if f : D -> C then the set f(D)

   a subset of C, the codomain.
