Anticipation

I just heard that the 2nd edition of Digital Image Processing Using MATLAB just shipped from the printer! Hurray!

Now I'm using the satellite view in Google Maps to see if I can find the truck.

    Looks good!

    I hope it will have a preview in Scribd or Google Books.

    Why not release the toolbox for free? If someone writes code using the toolbox, they will not be able to share their code.

    At a bare minimum, release the P-code for free. Otherwise no one will use the toolbox.

    Petter—Thanks for your input. The DIPUM 2e Support Package, which includes P-files, will be available free to purchasers of a new copy of the 2nd edition of the book.

    Congratulations Steve,

    The 1st edition and Gonzalez and Woods ‘Digital Image Processing’ are always in easy reach. Together those two books handle about 80% of my DIP questions. (Pratt usually handles the remainder)

    I’m curious as to what references you keep handy??

    Matt—I appreciate the kind words! Interesting question about my references. I’ll think about it and post something when I’m back in the office next week.

    Let’s say I buy this book. Then I get the P-code toolbox for free. But I won’t be able to use it, since I cannot assume that the people I share my code with have or can obtain this toolbox.

    Wouldn’t it make more sense to release the P-code toolbox for free?

    Petter—Thanks for your input. I imagine that we will leave things as they are for now, but we’ll be closely monitoring additional feedback we receive once the book is actually available for purchase.

Wrap code fragments inside <pre> tags, like this:

<pre class="code">
a = magic(3);
sum(a)
</pre>

If you have a "<" character in your code, either follow it with a space or replace it with "&lt;" (including the semicolon).
