  \ingroup ImageContainer ImageDataRepresentation

  \brief Definition of the vpImage class member functions.

  This is a template class, therefore the type of each  element of the
  array is not a priori defined.

  <h3> Data structure </h3>

  Each image is build using two structure (an array bitmap which size
  is [width*height]) and an array of pointer row (which size is [nrow])
  the ith element in the row array row[i] is pointer toward the ith
  "line" of the image (ie, bitmap +i*width )

  \image html image-data-structure.gif
  \image latex image-data-structure.ps  width=10cm

  Such a structure allows a fast acces to each element of the image.
  if i is the ith rows and j the jth columns the value of this pixel
  is given by I[i][j] (that is equivalent to row[i][j]).

  <h3>Example</h3>
  The following example available in tutorial-image-manipulation.cpp shows how
  to create gray level and color images and how to access to the pixels.
  \include tutorial-image-manipulation.cpp

  <h3>Important remark</h3> To provide high-performance access there
  is no verification to ensure that 0 \f$\le\f$ i < height and 0
  \f$\le\f$ j < width. Since the memory allocated in the bitmap array
  is continuous, that means that if (i, j) is outside the image you
  will manipulate a pixel that is not as expected. To highlight this
  remark, we provide hereafter an example where the considered pixel
  is outside the image:

\code
unsigned int width = 320;
unsigned int height = 240;
vpImage<unsigned char> I(height, width); // Create an 320x240 image
// Set pixel coordinates that is outside the image
unsigned int i = 100;
unsigned int j = 400;
unsigned char value;
value = I[i][j]; // Here we will get the pixel value at position (101, 80)
\endcode
