Answers to Questions (FAQ)
What is an image into digits? (Definition)
In computers, the images are encoded with numbers, themselves stored in binary depending on the image format used.
However, it is possible to store the images in the form of an array of numbers, the first number (or figure) of the first line indicating the value of the first pixel of the image, and so on.
By storing the numbers to 1 digit, it is possible to have an array similar to ASCII art representing the image.
How to encode an image in digits?
Upload the image, indicate the number of digits, and click on convert.
The image will be converted to grayscale (shades of black and white) and each pixel in the image will be read and converted from 0 to N depending on its grayscale (0 = black by default).

How to transform digits into an image?
For each number, convert it into a pixel of the corresponding color (gray level). If there are 4 distinct numbers (from 0 to 3), then the colors will be: black, light grey, dark gray and white.
If the size of the image is not known, dCode can use newlines if they exist.
