Differentiate between raster and vector images.

What will be an ideal response?


Image files are either raster or vector.Raster images, orbitmaps, consist of a series of individual pixels. At the optimal resolution (based on image quality and size), the pixels are not visible. A bitmap contains a specific number of pixels measured as pixels per inch (ppi) and isresolution dependent, meaning that resizing the image affects the image quality.?Vector images, orvector graphics, consist of a group of separate drawing objects, such as shapes, curves, and lines, combined to create a single image. Vector images areresolution independent. You can resize a vector image with no loss of image quality. To use a vector image on the web, you must rasterize it by saving it in a bitmap file format.
