To Digital

A digital image is built up from pixels, each of a particular colour.

A pixel is a very small square or rectangle that is set to one and only one colour.

We saw these colour values in Logo where we could use setpc red or setpc "#FF00FF to choose one of the ~16.7 million colours that are available.

A digital art program simulates painting by colouring a whole group of pixels when you drag your pointer. The effect can be designed to simulate different types of paint and brush.

What different paint simulations does 2Paint offer?
