Description

In JuliaImages images are stored using the following three datatypes:

  • FixedPointNumbers.Normed, e.g., N0f8, N0f16
  • AbstractFloat, e.g., Float32, Float64
  • Bool

⚠️ We don't represent images as array of Integer (except Bool)

We also need some documentation explaining the wrap around behavior of N0f8
