I am not knowledgeable of Image file formats or even compression. I opened up a JPG image file in a text editor and I saw gibberish. Not zero and one gibberish. Or even numbers from 0 to 256 gibberish. I saw so many different characters. To name a few: ¡jÑœ¥îŸàöÐʽì™ÑOø~w;6Œb¿àºVËwÿ ö
Do I see these characters instead of integers because the JPG format is compressed and I am not reading bits per pixel when I look at a JPG? Also, how many characters are available for writing in a JPG file? Is it all available ASCII characters?
This is not a computer science question. – Raphael – 2015-03-09T18:53:30.987
