In order to display images in eight colours on a graphic displaythe amount of the video memory in bits which must be presentis:a/ Equal to the number of the screen pixels;b/ Four times the number of the screen pixels;c/ Three times the number ofthe screen pixels;d/ Nothing of the above
This distinction influences whether raster or vector images are scanned by a Processor on a display device.
Data for a specific graphics display:resolution 1024 x 768 pixelsto encode color and intensity, a total of 8 bits are required for each pixelHow many bytes are required to store the contents of the screen in memory?
