Thread: colors in java.. what would be most easy to start with for a beginner?

Hi all,

Im kinda new both to java and this forum.. but am very intrested in learning java..

So i was thinking about colors in java and was wondering what kinda colors are regonised by java..

found this java.awt.color.. which goes very indepth with transparancy(alpha) and other formats of colors..

Question:

I wanne make a programm in java that breaks up a picture(pixels) and put it together again..

Storing values of the colors and so forth...

Which format of colors would be easy to start with if taking about java programming? RGB?

Thanks alot

Welcome to the forum! Please read this topic to learn how to post code in code or highlight tags and other useful info for new members.

Graphics manipulation, modification, steganography, etc. in any language are intermediate to advanced topics, not the sort of projects I'd recommend to someone "kinda new" to a language. There are many tutorials available on the 'net that cover these topics, and you could find them and work through those, but I recommend you complete a few months of basic Java study first.

Starting a project that is significantly above your abilities or for which you haven't laid a solid foundation of the basics on which to build the necessary new skills are sure recipes for failure that will ultimately put you off programming and cause you to doubt your aptitude. I can't guarantee that everyone has the aptitude for programming (in fact, I think some don't), but give yourself a chance for success by gaining a thorough understanding of the basics first.

thanks for the reply

can you point me to tutorials over this topic..

Thanks alot

A great place to start is with the Oracle Tutorials.

Good luck!

seems that i was not really clear on the level of knowledgement on java..

I know the basics, read some books about did alot of examples that came with the book..(sams teach yourself java sixth edition)

i was hoping for tutorials or exmaples coding with adjusting or storing colors codes of pixels..
