~/About

Developed in Haskell as part of a third-year school project, this tool "compresses" images by reducing their color space using the k-means clustering algorithm. The program takes a file as input and allows users to specify parameters such as the number of colors and the convergence threshold. It then processes the image to cluster similar colors together, effectively reducing the overall palette. The final output follows the required school text format, and I added a script to convert this output into a PNG file for easy visualization.
