Working with Data


Representation of Information in a Computer

• All information in a computer is stored as a collection of bits

• A bit, also known as a binary digit, is a number represented in base 2. It can only be either a 1 (one) or 0 (zero)

• Think of information as data with structure– All the one’s and zero’s represented by the

computer is data. How they are interpretted generates information (or garbage)



• Information stored in a computer can represent– Instructions

• Executable Programs

– Data• Numbers - integers and real values• Characters - ASCII, multinational characters• Others - imagery, sound, etc.



• Bits in a computer are usually grouped into the following units– 4 bits == 1 nibble– 8 bits == 1 byte or 1 ( char ) - a single

character– 16 bits == 2 bytes or 1 ( short int, int ) -

integer value– 32 bits == 4 bytes or 1 ( long int, int ) - integer

value– or 1( float) - real value– 64 bits == 8 bytes or 1 (double) - real value



• Numbers can be represented as either integers or real values– integers { -5, 0, 125, -32767 }– real { 3.14159, -2.71828, -1.0e-20, 10.000 }

• Text is typically represented using the ASCII character set where each character is represented as a byte value.


Representation of Information in a Computer• Text is typically represented using the ASCII character set

where each character is represented as a byte value.

The ASCII decimal character set is:

Line Delimiters on Different Systems

• In the UNIX System, lines are delimited by linefeed (also designated as nl and has an ASCII value of 012 or 10)

• In MACS and PC’s, lines are delimited by carriage returns (also designated as cr and has an ASCII value of 015 or 13)

• Still other systems use a combination of carriage return-line feeds to delimit lines


Common Cross PlatformFile Problem

• Some one gave you a text file created on a PC which you transferred to the UNIX system. You try to edit the file using vi, but vi complains that the line is too long

• Solution: (A Stupid Unix Trick)– % cat old_file | tr “\015” “\012” > new_file– This command translates all carriage returns to

line feeds.

Converting Number BasesIn base 10,

4210 = 4 x 101 = 40+ 2 x 100 = 2_________________

4210 = 4210

In base 2,4210 = 1 x 25 = 32

+ 0 x 24 = 0+ 1 x 23 = 8+ 0 x 22 = 0+ 1 x 21 = 2+ 0 x 20 = 0_________________

1010102 = 4210


Converting Number Bases

In base 8,4210 = 5 x 81 = 40

+ 2 x 80 = 2_________________

528 = 4210

In base 16,4210 = 2 x 161 = 32

+ A x 160 = 10_________________

Converting a Negative Number into

Binary using 2’s ComplementFor example lets convert -4210 into a negative binary

• Determine number of bits we want to represent (e.g. 16)

• Convert the absolute value (42) into binary

0000000000101010

• Take the 1’s complement of the binary number

1111111111010101

• Add 1 (one) to the resulting number

1111111111010110


How Does This All Relate to Computers and

Programming• Computer Architectures generally are described using thenumbering systems we have mentioned.

• We can determine the limitations of systems by the ranges described by these numbers.

• In hardware, these numbers determine the amount of memory a particular system can address and the range of values a particular memory location can hold.

• In programming, these numbers will tell you what data type you can work with.

• In images, these numbers can tell you the limits of your dimensions and limits of the number of “colors” you can have.

In General• If you have n-bits of addressing, you can access 2 addresses ranging from 0 to 2 -1

• If you have n-bits of data, you can have 2 states foryour data.

• For images, the number of bits per picture element (pixel) will determine how many “colors” an image can represent.

bilevel image has 1 bit per pixel giving 2 “colors”

grey level image has n bits per pixel giving 2^n “colors”

RGB color image has 3 bands with n bits per bandgiving 2^(3n) “colors”

Multispectral images has m bands with n bits per band


Caveat on Multi-Byte Data

• When dealing with data that encompasses more than a single byte (e.g. integer value greater than 255), you must know the “endian” of the data

• Endian represents how a machine interprets the significance of a set of bytes.

• There are big-endian machines and little endian machines



• Big Endian Machines (Suns, Motorolas) would represent the integer value 512 internally as two bytes in the following order.

MSB LSB

00000010 00000000



• Little Endian Machines (DECS, Intels) would represent the integer value 512 internally as two bytes in the following order.

LSB MSB

00000000 00000010


Caveat on Multi-Byte Data• This is typically not a problem as long as you

stay on the same machine. • If you, however, start transferring data (e.g.

images) in raw form from one machine to another, you will need to be aware of this situation.

• You can often transpose multibyte data using the dd utility (does not work for data spanning more than two bytes)


Working with IDL Variables

• Variable names must start with a letter but can include, letters, digits, underscore or dollar characters.

• Variables are not case sensitive, i.e.,– Celsius is equivalent to celsius


Working with IDL Variables

• Variables in IDL have two important attributes– Data type– Attributes


IDL Variable Data Types

• Undefined• Integer Values

– Byte, Integer, Long Integer

• Floating Point Values– Floating Point, Double Precision– Single Precision Complex, Double

Precision Complex

• String


IDL Variable Data Structures

• Scalar

• Vector (one-dimensional array)

• Array (up to eight dimensions)

• Structure (combination of any mixture of data - Very Important in understanding Object-Oriented Programming Concepts)


Initializing Scalar Variables• byte_variable = 0B• integer_variable = 0• long_integer = 0L• float_variable = 0.0• double_variable = 0.0D• complex_variable = Complex(0.0, 0.0)• dcomplex_variable = DComplex(0.0, 0.0)• string_variable = ‘‘


Initializing Array Variables• byte_array = bytarr( 256, 256, 3 )• integer_array = intarr( 256, 256 )• long_array = lonarr( 256, 256 )• float_array = fltarr( 256, 256 )• double_array = dblarr( 256, 256 )• complex_array = complexarr( 256, 256 )• dcomplex_array = dcomplexarr( 256, 256)• string_array = strarr(80)


Initializing Array Variables

• Initializing Array with each element set to its subscript– bindgen, indgen, lindgen, findgen, dindgen,

cindgen, dcindgen, sindgen– Only real parts of complex numbers are set

to the subscripts– An array of strings containing the numbers

is created by sindgen


Initializing Array Variables

• Make_array function is a general way of creating and initializing arraysarray=make_array(10,12,Value=1,/Int)

• Replicate functions allows initialization of all elements of an array with a given variable (useful in structures)initial_value = 1array=replicate(initial_value, 10,12)


Structures in IDL

• Allows more abstract data types to be created from other basic data types

• Example– Date data structure

IDL> a={date, month:0B, day:0B, year:0B}

IDL> print,a

{ 0 0 0}


Structures in IDL• Date Example (using a Named Structure)

IDL> a.month=12IDL> a.day=25IDL> a.year=96IDL> print,a{ 12 25 96}IDL> print,a.month 12IDL> print,a.day 25IDL> print,a.year 96


Structures in IDL

• Date Structure ExampleIDL> c={date}

IDL> print,c

{ 0 0 0}

IDL> help,c

C STRUCT = -> DATE Array(1)


Structures in IDL

• Anonymous StructuresIDL> d={month:1,day:1,year:97}

IDL> print,d

{ 1 1 97}

IDL> e=d

IDL> print,e

{ 1 1 97}


Structures in IDL

• Anonymous StructuresIDL>

e={month:'January',day:d.day,year:d.year}

IDL> print,e

{ January 1 97}

IDL> e.month='December'

IDL> print,e

{ December 1 97}


Structures in IDL

• Determining Variable StructureIDL> help,e,/structure

** Structure <761058>, 3 tags, length=12, refs=1:

MONTH STRING 'December'

DAY INT 1

YEAR INT 97


Structures in IDL

• Determining Structure CharacteristicsIDL> print,n_tags(e)

3

IDL> print,tag_names(e)

MONTH DAY YEAR


Dual Nature of IDL structures

IDL> e={month:"December", day:1, year:97}

IDL> print,e.month

December

IDL> print,e.day

IDL> print,e.year

IDL> e={month:"December", day:1, year:97}

IDL> print,e.(0)

IDL> print,e.(2)

• Assign band 1 to band 4IDL> band1=image(*,*,0)

IDL> image(*,*,3) = band1

• ShortcutIDL> image(*,*,3)=image(*,*,0)

IDL> print,image(0:1,0:1,*) 0 1 2 3
