For more including Author's Notes download the eBook pages with this program's code listing.

The depicter program allows an infinite number of black and white images to be constructed from a string. The Depicter’s method of encoding is such an efficient method of storing whole screens of data that it will turn up again in future programs. For the purpose of helping people contribute this program is presented.

The method of encoding used for the depicter program uses a knowledge of binary coupled with a table that is available on the depicting code listing. However, if you are encoding pictures using this method by hand it may be of benefit to have a more detailed table available. But why make the table by hand when you can have the computer do it?

Just follow this simple program and you will be producing your own images for the depicter program, which may just turn out to be a useful skill later on.
