CStats:MaxPix

The MaxPix method returns the pixel coordinates of the maximum value for a data object.

x, y = CStats:MaxPix( CImage, CRect )

x, y = CStats:MaxPix( CImage )

x, y = CStats:MaxPix( table )

CRect is a bounding rectangle for the CImage object.

table is a 1-dimensional array containing numbers.

x and y are the pixel coordinates of the maximum value, relative to 1,1.

On success, returns x and y coordinates as non-zero.

On failure, returns 0,0.

Suppose a CImage named I and a CRect named R exist. The following script returns the location of the maximum value inside a rectangle:

S = new_stats()	-- create a CStats object
S:Init( I, R )	-- specify CImage and CRect to measure
x, y = S:MaxPix()	-- get the column and row of the maximum value
Printf("Max at %d,&d\n", x, y )	-- list the result
S:delete()	-- when done with S, remove it from memory
