Its a crazy idea but what I am trying to do is create every combination possible of a 640x480 bitmap file.
After that you could also generate all possible novels up to 500 pages, so I will finally get rid of the monkeys in my basement ;-)

Seriously, the number of all possible images is *real* huge, and even if you managed to save them somewhere, indexing them would be as difficult as generating them. In order to retrieve a specific image, you would somehow be able to indicate "I want the image whose first pixel is 0xa, whose second pixel is 0x0 ..." and so on with all the pixels. It is more reasonable to just generate it on the fly (and it allows you to save a few gazillion bytes).

Cheers

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
