Defining and using a 2D array (=matrix)

[Rafael Carazo-Salas]

Hi all I have a kind of basic question :  how does one define a 2D array
(2D matrix) in ImageJ ?  I know that for a normal 1D array it is name =
newArray(size) .  Thanks in advance !

The ImageJ macro language does not directly support 2D arrays. You have
to is either create an image and use getPixel() and setPixel(), or
create a 1D array using a = newArray(xmax*ymax) and do your own
indexing (e.g., value = a[x + y*xmax]).
