8 bitmap? There is another, obvious, reason why each bitmap row should be coded individually. What is it? Figure 1.9a lists Matlab code to compute run lengths for a bi-level image. The code is very simple. It starts by flattening the matrix into a one-dimensional vector, so the run lengths continue from row to row.
