12/29/2023 0 Comments Raster vs vector imageWith vector images, you can get an image that is more detailed and finer. ![]() It forms shapes with mathematical equations. This is a graphic or image that is both created and defined on a plane, with curves and connecting lines. If you are looking to increase or decrease the resolution and size of an image with raster images, it can be rather tricky. This makes it easy to make an image that is smaller. The image represents a rectangular grid of pixels. It can also be referred to as a bitmap image. This is a common term for digital photography and computers. What are the differences between the two? It is easy to tell the difference, and here is why. You can also look at the file extensions, and if you see EPS, Ai, or SVG, then your artwork is very likely a vector based image.Graphic designers often use raster images and vector graphics. The first thing to look at is if you enlarge your image significantly, and the edges stay smooth, and any text in the design keeps its crisp lines and spacing, chances are your artwork is vector based. If you are trying to figure if your artwork is a vector based file, there are a couple of things you can do. Our teams are prepared to work with this type of art file, to get you great custom stickers. So if your graphic designer has sent some of these over, and you can't open them, that is OK. This also means these files need the special software to be opened. This also means a single vector image file can be used for a business card, the logo on your website, or having a sign printed for your business.Īlthough, because vector images are designed differently than raster images, they also must be created on special art softwares, such as Adobe Illustrator. The adaptability of vector graphics makes this type of file format ideal for logos and marketing materials, that are likely to be used for both digital and print purposes. The vector image will not look grainy or pixelated when zoomed in. This example shows a vector image at the top, and a raster image on the bottom, both zoomed in very closely. Because the elements of a vector image are set to designated paths, they can also be rescaled to any size without distorting the design. The set points of the lines and curves along each designated path create the design. This is because vector artwork is designed in a much more formulaic method, and works with lines and curves which are set to designated paths within an image. If you aren't quite sure what CMYK process color means, that's OK, we explain what this is on our page Spot Color vs Full Color Printing.Ĭompared to raster images, vector artwork is designed to be infinitely scalable, and the edges of these images will stay smooth and true to the design whether they are sized down or up. Also, designing raster based artwork in CMYK process color will work best to get you the best color matching results in the printing process. ![]() It’s always easiest to bring a raster based image down in size, or dots per inch, than it is to make them a larger size or higher resolution, without distorting your designs. If you know you will be using your raster artwork for print, either in stickers, or other marketing materials for your brand, you’ll want to begin all designing in a print quality resolution, or 300 dpi. Commonly seen file extensions on raster based artwork are JPEG, PSD, PNG, or TIFF, and these usually indicate if your file is a raster image or not. You can also look to the file extensions for some clues. If the edges look rough, or the image appears grainy, then it is a raster based image. The first way is to zoom in or enlarge your image significantly. There are a couple of ways to tell if your artwork or graphic is raster based or not. A higher resolution raster image will keep its crisp appearance if your artwork has to be resized for printing your custom stickers or labels. When we print custom stickers from raster art files, we need the resolution, or dots per inch, to be formatted for a print quality, which is 300 dpi, at the desired size of your finished sticker. The resolution of this type of image is measured in the number of pixels per square inch of your design or photo, which is also known as dots per inch, or dpi. With raster graphics, the number of pixels or dots per inch has a direct effect on the resolution of your image, and how much it can be resized before becoming distorted. ![]() My cart 0 One sticker in your cart 0 stickers in your cart Your cart is empty

12/29/2023 0 Comments Daily crosswords![]() The crossword does seem to have a special relationship to memory: not as medicine, but as a sort of lens for understanding our mental storage units. Media coverage about the crossword and dementia is completely black and white: crosswords are either the brain’s secret weapon or they’re a gigantic waste of time. Indeed, the more I researched, the more I realized that the story about crosswords and dementia could be told in either direction, and in equally compelling ways. Other crossword-bashing studies point out that people would be better served flexing their brains in a more creative activity-say, writing a musical. A longitudinal Scottish study showed that a regular puzzle habit didn’t seem to affect test subjects’ mental sharpness one way or the other. “Crosswords and puzzles do not prevent mental decline, study says,” a December 2018 CNN headline declares. Belief in puzzle power has fueled multimillion-dollar industry of brain-training games like Lumosity or Dakim.īut as I dug deeper, I found that the narrative swung just as persuasively in the other direction. A 2011 experiment with members of the Bronx Aging Study found that a regular regimen of crosswords might delay the onset of cognitive decline. According to a University of Exeter study, older adults who regularly did word and number puzzles had increased mental acuity. “Regular crosswords and number puzzles linked to sharper brain in later life,” a May 2019 Science Daily headline proclaims. And at first, all the studies I found seemed to bear this hypothesis out. The evidence, it seemed, couldn’t be clearer: doing crosswords late in life prevents dementia. When I was researching my book Thinking Inside the Box: Adventures with Crosswords and the Puzzling People Who Can’t Live Without Them, I was fascinated by my family’s case study. Murray lived to be 91, but the last several years of his life were marked with severe dementia. ![]() Irv died at age 94, and he barely experienced any cognitive loss before the last six months of his life, when he exhibited rapid mental decline. Murray swam a few times a week, devoured books and loved to travel. ![]() He methodically and religiously worked his way through each one, from the crossword to the jumble to the cryptoquip, a substitution cipher that asks solvers to decode clues and figure out the pun.Įxtroverted and spontaneous Murray, a successful businessman and local politician, also had his morning routine: coffee with lots of sugar oatmeal and tinkering on one of his many writing projects, such as a loosely autobiographical musical about a traveling salesman. For decades, Irv, an introverted, quiet, retired bartender and former military engineer, had the same morning routine: coffee and cream a roll and the puzzle page of the Press of Atlantic City. Let me tell you a tale of two grandfathers, Irv and Murray. ![]() It also has chapters on explaining about SOLID Principles of Object-Oriented Design, which are key to writing Clean Code. It also has chapters on how you correct them like how to convert a long switch statement into a much better model based upon the open-close design principle and leveraging the power of Inheritance and Polymorphism. Here is the link to buy this book - Refactoring, Improving the design of existing codeĬlean Code book has chapters of code smell, which is a great collection of common mistakes made by all kinds of programmers. Refactoring is also an attribute of experienced Programmers, as your job area now includes improving code but also your fellow developer’s code. You will learn the true definition of clean code by going through his examples. The great part is that Martin literally walks you the steps by taking a code you often see and then step by step converting into more flexible, more usable code. This book will teach you how to convert a mediocre code into a great code that can stand production load and real-world software development nightmare, the CHANGE. This book is written in Java as it’s the principal language, but the concept and idea are applicable to any Object-oriented language, like C++ or C#. Refactoring, Improving the design of existing code They will teach you how to use these tools to solve a real-world problem. These are not the book that tells you how to write a for loop or how to check for a condition on if block because that can be learned from any book. If you follow and practical advice given in these books, you will surely learn a lot about the craft of coding and programming. Here is the list of books that will make you an expert in coding and programming. They are completely worthy of your time and money. If you are not familiar with them, I suggest you go through the SOLID Principles of Object-Oriented Design and Architecture course on Udemy to learn them. One more thing which helped me a lot while writing better code is knowledge of SOLID design principles, they are a small set of guidelines which if followed result in better cohesion and loose coupling. I thought to share that with you guys, If you are more inclined to web programming, you will also find the rest of the books more valuable, but If you are a server-side or full-stack Java programmer, you will definitely find the top 5 worth reading. Though I don’t agree with all the books they have there, I definitely agree with the top 6 and the last book, which is an all-time classic on design patterns. Recently I come across an infographic about 10 Books That Make You Expert in Programming. Martin Fowler is another great name in software design, development, and testing, and his book on Refactoring is a must-read for any serious programmer. The point is self-learning is VERY important in the field of Programming and Coding, you just cannot rely on your college and university to make you an expert programmer, you have to make that extra effort to distinguish yourself from the group and what could be better than by learning coding and wisdom of programming from those who have gone through the same path? Uncle Bob is a big advocate of clean code and object-oriented design, and as much I have learned about coding and programming from his series of books, I have not learned anywhere. Some universities have a good curriculum and practical classes to teach coding better than others, but most of these great coders are self-taught Programmers, who learned by reading books, joining online courses, and doing things on their own. You can easily find programmers in Java, C++, Ruby, or Python, but finding programmers, who are also a good coder is very difficult. You can learn Coding easily if you are dedicated, but what is more difficult is to write good code. Yes, I am talking about both self-taught programmer and Computer Science Graduates.
