Lessons Learned

While building this project, I gained valuable insights and overcame a variety of challenges:

1. Reading Images: Learned to read images using

BufferedImage and ImageIO in Java. 2. Pixel Manipulation: Discovered how to iterate over each pixel and extract color values. 3. Luminance Formula: Applied the formula for converting RGB to greyscale: Value = int grayValue = (int) (red + green + blue) / 3 4. Image Modification: Gained experience in modifying pixel color data. 5. Saving Images: Used ImageIO.write() to save the edited image. 6. Creating Executables: Converted Java JAR files into executables using Launch4j. 7. Setup Creation: Learned to create a program setup file with Inno Setup Compiler.
