Task
Bitmap/Read a PPM file
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Using the data storage type defined on this page for raster images, read an image from a PPM file (binary P6 prefered). (Read the definition of PPM file on Wikipedia.)

Task: Use write ppm file solution and grayscale image solution with this one in order to convert a color image to grayscale one.

The implementation propagates Data_Error when the file format is incorrect. End_Error is propagated when the file end is prematurely met. The following example illustrates conversion of a color file to grayscale.

declare
   F1, F2 : File_Type;
begin
   Open (F1, In_File, "city.ppm");
   Create (F2, Out_File, "city_grayscale.ppm");
   Put_PPM (F2, Color (Grayscale (Get_PPM (F1))));
   Close (F1);
   Close (F2);
end;

ATS

For this you will need the static and dynamic ATS source files of Bitmap#ATS, Grayscale_image#ATS, and Bitmap/Write_a_PPM_file#ATS. (You do not need libnetpbm, although one could easily use it with ATS.)

There are three files here: a static file for the interface to pixmap_read_ppm, a dynamic file for the implementation of pixmap_read_ppm, and a file for the program that converts an image to grayscale. (The last is a dynamic file, but we will call it the program file.)

With pixmap_read_ppm<rgb24> you should be able to read any valid PPM, whether raw or plain, and with any valid Maxval. The result is a pixmap1(rgb24) with implicit Maxval of 255. The reader tries to be very permissive, although there seems not much I can do about the strange way comments work in PPM.

The ATS static file

This file should be called bitmap_read_ppm_task.sats.

#define ATS_PACKNAME "Rosetta_Code.bitmap_read_ppm_task"

staload "bitmap_task.sats"

fn {a : t@ype}
pixmap_read_ppm :
  (* On failure to read, the return is None_vt(). I do not currently
     provide any indication of why the attempt failed, although in
     practice you probably would wish to add that. *)
  FILEref ->
    Option_vt ([w, h : pos] [p : addr | null < p]
               @(mfree_gc_v p | pixmap (a, w, h, p)))

The ATS dynamic file

This file should be called bitmap_read_ppm_task.dats.

You can compile the program with the shell command

myatscc bitmap_read_ppm_task_program.dats

If compilation is successful, the program will be called bitmap_read_ppm_task_program. You can give up to two arguments (any others will be ignored). The first argument is a file name for the input file, the second is the file name for the output file. Either argument can be "-", meaning to use the respective standard input or output. An argument omitted is equivalent to "-".

Shown in the margin are before and after for SIPI test image 4.1.06 (not counting that I have converted the PPM files to JPEGs).

C

It is up to the caller to open the file and pass the handler to the function. So this code can be used in Read image file through a pipe without modification. It only understands the P6 file format.

Interface:

image get_ppm(FILE *pf);

Implementation:

#include "imglib.h"

#define PPMREADBUFLEN 256
image get_ppm(FILE *pf)
{
        char buf[PPMREADBUFLEN], *t;
        image img;
        unsigned int w, h, d;
        int r;
        
        if (pf == NULL) return NULL;
        t = fgets(buf, PPMREADBUFLEN, pf);
        /* the code fails if the white space following "P6" is not '\n' */
        if ( (t == NULL) || ( strncmp(buf, "P6\n", 3) != 0 ) ) return NULL;
        do
        { /* Px formats can have # comments after first line */
           t = fgets(buf, PPMREADBUFLEN, pf);
           if ( t == NULL ) return NULL;
        } while ( strncmp(buf, "#", 1) == 0 );
        r = sscanf(buf, "%u %u", &w, &h);
        if ( r < 2 ) return NULL;

        r = fscanf(pf, "%u", &d);
        if ( (r < 1) || ( d != 255 ) ) return NULL;
        fseek(pf, 1, SEEK_CUR); /* skip one byte, should be whitespace */

        img = alloc_img(w, h);
        if ( img != NULL )
        {
            size_t rd = fread(img->buf, sizeof(pixel), w*h, pf);
            if ( rd < w*h )
            {
               free_img(img);
               return NULL;
            }
            return img;
        }
}

The following acts as a filter to convert a PPM file read from standard input into a PPM gray image, and it outputs the converted image to standard output (see Grayscale image, Write ppm file, and Raster graphics operations in general):

#include <stdio.h>
#include "imglib.h"

int main()
{
   image source;
   grayimage idest;
   
   source = get_ppm(stdin);
   idest = tograyscale(source);
   free_img(source);
   source = tocolor(idest);
   output_ppm(stdout, source);
   free_img(source); free_img((image)idest);
   return 0;
}

            return null;
        reader.ReadChar(); //Eat the last newline
        int width = int.Parse(widths),
            height = int.Parse(heights);
        Bitmap bitmap = new Bitmap(width, height);

        for (int y = 0; y < height; y++)
            for (int x = 0; x < width; x++)
                bitmap.SetPixel(x, y, new Bitmap.Color()
                {

Notes:

  • doing formatted I/O with Fortran is a pain... And unformatted does not mean free; Fortran2003 has streams, but they are not implemented (yet) in GNU Fortran compiler. Here (as in the write part) I've tried to handle the PPM format through formatted I/O. The tests worked but I have not tried still everything.
  • comments after the first line are not handled

Haskell

The definition of Bitmap.Netpbm.readNetpbm is given here.

import Bitmap
import Bitmap.RGB
import Bitmap.Gray
import Bitmap.Netpbm

import Control.Monad
import Control.Monad.ST

main = 
    (readNetpbm "original.ppm" :: IO (Image RealWorld RGB)) >>=
    stToIO . toGrayImage >>=
    writeNetpbm "new.pgm"

The above writes a PGM, not a PPM, since the image being output is in grayscale. If you actually want a gray PPM, convert the Image RealWorld Gray back to an Image RealWorld RGB first:

main =
    (readNetpbm "original.ppm" :: IO (Image RealWorld RGB)) >>=
    stToIO . (toRGBImage <=< toGrayImage) >>=
    writeNetpbm "new.ppm"

J

Solution:
Uses makeRGB from Basic bitmap storage.

require 'files'

readppm=: monad define
  dat=. fread y                                           NB. read from file
  msk=. 1 ,~ (*. 3 >: +/\) (LF&=@}: *. '#'&~:@}.) dat     NB. mark field ends
  't wbyh maxval dat'=. msk <;._2 dat                     NB. parse
  'wbyh maxval'=. 2 1([ {. [: _99&". (LF,' ')&charsub)&.> wbyh;maxval  NB. convert to numeric
  if. (_99 0 +./@e. wbyh,maxval) +. 'P6' -.@-: 2{.t do. _1 return. end.
  (a. i. dat) makeRGB |.wbyh                              NB. convert to basic bitmap format
)

Example:
Using utilities and file from Grayscale image and Write ppm file.
Writes a gray PPM file (a color format) which is bigger than necessary. A PGM file would be more appropriate.

myimg=: readppm jpath '~temp/myimg.ppm'
myimgGray=: toColor toGray myimg
myimgGray writeppm jpath '~temp/myimgGray.ppm'

REXX

The input file   Lenna50.ppm   is a PPM format of
the input file    Lenna50.jpg    used elsewhere on Rosetta Code.

Tcl

Library: Tk

The actual PPM reader is built into the photo image engine:

package require Tk

proc readPPM {image file} {
    $image read $file -format ppm
}

Thus, to read a PPM, convert it to grayscale, and write it back out again becomes this (which requires Tcl 8.6 for try/finally); the PPM reader and writer are inlined because they are trivial at the script level:

package require Tk

proc grayscaleFile {filename {newFilename ""}} {
    set buffer [image create photo]
    if {$newFilename eq ""} {set newFilename $filename}
    try {
        $buffer read $filename -format ppm
        set w [image width $buffer]
        set h [image height $buffer]
        for {set x 0} {$x<$w} {incr x} {
            for {set y 0} {$y<$h} {incr y} {
                lassign [$buffer get $x $y] r g b
                set l [expr {int(0.2126*$r + 0.7152*$g + 0.0722*$b)}]
                $buffer put [format "#%02x%02x%02x" $l $l $l] -to $x $y
            }
        }
        $buffer write $newFilename -format ppm
    } finally {
        image delete $buffer
    }
}

However, the Tk library also has built-in the ability to convert code to grayscale directly during the saving of an image to a file, leading to this minimal solution:

package require Tk

proc grayscaleFile {filename {newFilename ""}} {
    set buffer [image create photo]
    if {$newFilename eq ""} {set newFilename $filename}
    try {
        $buffer read $filename -format ppm
        $buffer write $newFilename -format ppm -grayscale
    } finally {
        image delete $buffer
    }
}

Add the following functions to the RGBColor_t type

    function setrgb {
        _.r=$1
        _.g=$2
        _.b=$3
    }
    function grayscale {
        integer x=$(( round( 0.2126*_.r + 0.7152*_.g + 0.0722*_.b ) ))
        _.r=$x
        _.g=$x
        _.b=$x
    }

Add the following function to the Bitmap_t type

    function grayscale {
        RGBColor_t c
        for ((y=0; y<_.height; y++)); do
            for ((x=0; x<_.width; x++)); do
                c.setrgb ${_.data[y][x]}
                c.grayscale
                _.data[y][x]=$(c.to_s)
            done
        done
    }

    function read {
        exec 4<"$1"
        typeset filetype
        read -u4 filetype
        if [[ $filetype != "P3" ]]; then
            print -u2 "error: I can only read P3 type PPM files"
        else
            read -u4 _.width _.height
            integer maxval
            read -u4 maxval
            integer x y r g b
            typeset -a bytes
            for ((y=0; y<_.height; y++)); do
                read -u4 -A bytes
                for ((x=0; x<_.width; x++)); do
                    r=${bytes[3*x+0]}
                    g=${bytes[3*x+1]}
                    b=${bytes[3*x+2]}
                    if (( r > maxval || g > maxval || b > maxval )); then
                        print -u2 "error: invalid color ($r $g $b), max=$maxval"
                        return 1
                    fi
                    _.data[y][x]="$r $g $b" 
                done 
            done
        fi
        exec 4<&-
    }

Now we can:

Bitmap_t c
c.read "$HOME/tmp/bitmap.ppm"
c.to_s

if [[ $(c.to_s) == $(cat "$HOME/tmp/bitmap.ppm") ]]; then
    echo looks OK
else
    echo something is wrong
fi

c.grayscale
c.to_s
c.write "$HOME/tmp/bitmap_g.ppm"

//   Load a PPM file

Return

Example of usage. In addition to LOAD_PPM routine above, you need routine RGB_TO_GRAYSCALE from Grayscale image and routine SAVE_PPM from Write ppm file.

// Load RGB image
Reg_Set(10, "|(USER_MACRO)\example.ppm")
Call("LOAD_PPM")

// Convert to grayscale
#10 = Buf_Num
Call("RGB_TO_GRAYSCALE")
Buf_Switch(#10) Buf_Quit(OK)

// Convert to RGB
Call("GRAYSCALE_TO_RGB")

// Save the image
Reg_Set(10, "|(USER_MACRO)\example_gray.ppm")
Call("SAVE_PPM")

// Cleanup and exit
Buf_Switch(#20) Buf_Quit(OK)
return

The simplicity of redirecting an input file on the command line doesn't work for files that contain binary data ($03 will abort a program). Image files larger than 1280x1024 are clipped to the screen dimensions.

Read a colored PPM file, convert it (in place) to grayscale and write the new image back to disk under a different name. Sanity checks are omitted.

I used a slightly different image from what is shown, but the results are the same.

//24-bpp P6 PPM solution:
image:=File("lena.ppm","rb").read();
start:=image.find("\n255\n")+5;   // Get sizeof PPM header
 
foreach n in ([start..image.len()-1,3]){  //  Transform color triplets
   r,g,b:=image[n,3];  // Read colors stored in RGB order
   l:=(0.2126*r + 0.7152*g + 0.0722*b).toInt(); // Derive luminance
   image[n,3]=T(l,l,l);
}

File("lenaGrey.ppm","wb").write(image);
