Question:
Do you notice any possible issues with the image analysis?
Day 3
Objective:
TLW use their cell phone camera and analyze a picture for a characteristic of their own choosing.
Hopefully you or your partner brought their cell phone (with camera) and can take a picture and send it to an accessible email account. Using what you have learned, think of an interesting image to take e.g. % freckles, % pepperoni, blonds vs.brunettes, % red cars in lot, % clouds, % color in poster/banner...?
Add this info to your Journal.
You may need to modify the program to adjust for different image sizes
i.e For Loop 0-300, Rect progress bars...
If you don't have a camera then do a Google image search as an alternative .
Day 4
Objective:
TLW finish their Journal , answer higher level questions, and submit for a grade
