Bitmap/Write a PPM file

Bitmap/Write a PPM file
You are encouraged to solve this task according to the task description, using any language you may know.

Using the data storage type defined on this page for raster images, write the image to a PPM file (binary P6 prefered).
(Read the definition of PPM file on Wikipedia.)

Ada

<lang ada> with Ada.Characters.Latin_1; with Ada.Streams.Stream_IO; use Ada.Streams.Stream_IO;

procedure Put_PPM (File : File_Type; Picture : Image) is

  use Ada.Characters.Latin_1;
  Size   : constant String := Integer'Image (Picture'Length (2)) & Integer'Image (Picture'Length (1));
  Buffer : String (1..Picture'Length (2) * 3);
  Color  : Pixel;
  Index  : Positive;

begin

  String'Write (Stream (File), "P6" & LF);
  String'Write (Stream (File), Size (2..Size'Last) & LF);
  String'Write (Stream (File), "255" & LF);
  for I in Picture'Range (1) loop
     Index := Buffer'First;
     for J in Picture'Range (2) loop
        Color := Picture (I, J);
        Buffer (Index)     := Character'Val (Color.R);
        Buffer (Index + 1) := Character'Val (Color.G);
        Buffer (Index + 2) := Character'Val (Color.B);
        Index := Index + 3;
     end loop;
     String'Write (Stream (File), Buffer);
  end loop;
  Character'Write (Stream (File), LF);

end Put_PPM; </lang> The solution writes the image into an opened file. The file format might fail to work on certain OSes, because output might mangle control characters like LF, CR, FF, HT, VT etc. The OS might also limit the line length of a text file. In general it is a bad idea to mix binary and text output in one file. This solution uses stream I/O, which should be as portable as possible.

C

<lang c>#include <stdio.h>

void output_ppm(FILE *fd, image img) {

   unsigned int n;
   fprintf(fd, "P6\n%d %d\n255\n", img->width, img->height);
   n = img->width * img->height;
   fwrite(img->buf, sizeof(pixel), n, fd);
   fflush(fd);

}</lang>

Fortran

Works with: Fortran version 90 and later

It loads RCImageBasic module, which is defined here. <lang fortran>module RCImageIO

 use RCImageBasic

 implicit none

contains

 subroutine output_ppm(u, img)
   integer, intent(in) :: u
   type(rgbimage), intent(in) :: img
   integer :: i, j

   write(u, '(A2)') 'P6'
   write(u, '(I0, ,I0)') img%width, img%height
   write(u, '(A)') '255'
   
   do j=1, img%height
      do i=1, img%width
         write(u, '(3A1)', advance='no') achar(img%red(i,j)), achar(img%green(i,j)), &
                                         achar(img%blue(i,j))
      end do
   end do

 end subroutine output_ppm

Vedit macro language

This routine creates a RAW PPM file (binary). Pixel data must be stored in edit buffer pointed by numeric register #10. The data in the buffer is assumed to be in R,G,B order, which is the order used by PPM file.
