It looks like someone messed up my picture! Can anyone reorganize the pixels? The python module PIL (Python Imaging Library) might be useful! https://mega.nz/#!OKxByZyT!vaabCJRG5D9zAUp7drTekcA5pszu67r_TbQMtxEzqGE

Update: I think whoever messed up my image took every column of pixels and put them side by side. Update: I think the width of the image was 304 before they messed with it.

    Nice one! You'll need PIL, getpixel, putpixel, and some math ;)

    Fairly straight forward to understand with the clues given. Not so straight forward to get it to work correctly. I used numpy and cv2

    Easy concept to get, but it is a pain to code. Good challenge.

    For me, this required very basic knowledge of PIL and numpy. Don't overthink it!

    Cool but very frustrating =)

  • faceless_jack

    Its supposed to be 304 height instead of 304 width. Was squinting my eyes for like an hour like a madman.

      ^^^ You can also solve this by converting to PNG and changing image dimensions in the IHDR chunk... assuming you knew this beforehand

    I loved it, this challenge is the first ever one i solved without looking at writeups (I just started today.)
