Image consists of a rectangular array of discrete picture elements called pixels. The PPM (portable pixmap format (.ppm)) is a particularly simple way used to represent or encode a rectangular image as uncompressed data file. This .ppm file can be viewed with number of tools, including GIMP, gThumb image viewer etc. Reading and Writing PPM images are a difficult task which has been overcome successfully in our experiment.
