Pixmap refers to raster graphics, a subset of “bitmap” graphics.
|

A pixmap is an array of pixels and the corresponding meta data to describe
|

how an image if formed from those pixels.
|

In the case of this library, a “width” field is used to map a specified
|
||||
number of pixels to a row of an image.

pixels := [ 0, 1, 2, 3 ]
