Digital image
A digital image is a representation of a real image as a
set of numbers that can be stored and processed by a
computer.
Digital images can be black and white, color (often in
RGB format), or non-optical (such as ultrasound or
X-ray).
Digital images can be manipulated using various
techniques and software to enhance their quality,
extract information, or automate tasks.
File format
Sure, file formats for digital images include
JPEG, PNG, GIF, SVG, WebP, and AVIF,
among others. Each format has its own
strengths and weaknesses, such as
compression level, color depth, and
compatibility with different web browsers.
 The Pros and Cons
of the file format
1. JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)
Pros: Widely supported, good for
photographs, small file size due to lossy
compression. Cons: Lossy compression can
reduce image quality, not suitable for
diagrams or icons, no transparency support.
1. PNG (Portable Network Graphics) Pros:
Lossless compression, supports
transparency, good for diagrams and icons,
can handle high color depth. Cons: Larger
file size than JPEG for photographs, not as
widely supported as JPEG.
1. SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) Pros: Scalable to any size without
loss of quality, small file size for simple graphics, can be edited
with vector graphics software. Cons: Not suitable for complex or
photographic images, may require more processing power to
render.
1. WebP Pros: Better compression than JPEG and PNG, supports
transparency, good for photographs and web graphics. Cons:
Limited browser support, may not be suitable for all use cases.
1. AVIF Pros: Better compression than JPEG and WebP, supports
transparency, good for photographs and web graphics. Cons:
Limited browser support, may not be suitable for all use cases.

 JPEG
PEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a popular raster image
format that is widely used for storing and transmitting photographic
images. It uses lossy compression, which reduces file size at the cost of
image quality.

JPEG is commonly used for processing and storage of full-color images

with realistic elements and brightness and color transitions. It is also
used for storing and transmitting graphical digital content, such as
photos, scanned copies of digitized pictures, and other similar use
cases.
