CStats:MinPix

The MinPix method returns the pixel coordinates of the minimum value for a data object.

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

x, y = CStats:MinPix( CImage )

x, y = CStats:MinPix( table )

CRect is a bounding rectangle for the CImage object.

table is a 1-dimensional array containing numbers.

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

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

On failure, returns 0,0.

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

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