NAME

       im_avg,  im_deviate,  im_min,  im_minpos,  im_max, im_maxpos - find the
       mean, standard deviation, minimum and maximum of an image


SYNOPSIS

       #include <vips/vips.h>

       int im_avg(im, out)
       IMAGE *im;
       double *out;

       int im_deviate(im, out)
       IMAGE *im;
       double *out;

       int im_min(im, out)
       IMAGE *im;
       double *out;

       int im_minpos(im, xpos, ypos, min)
       IMAGE *im;
       int *xpos, *ypos;
       double *min;

       int im_max(im, out)
       IMAGE *im;
       double *out;

       int im_maxpos(im, xpos, ypos, max)
       IMAGE *im;
       int *xpos, *ypos;
       double *max;



DESCRIPTION

       These functions find the mean, standard deviation, minimum, maximum  of
       an  image.   They  operate  on  all  bands  of  the  input  image.  Use
       im_stats(3) if you need to calculate on bands separately.  All computa-
       tions  are  carried  out  in double precision arithmetic.  The standard
       deviation is calculated using the formula:

        Var{E} = 1 / (N - 1) * (E{X^2} - E{X}^2 / N)
        stdev{E} = sqrt(Var{E}).

       im_avg(3) finds the average of an image pointed by im.  Takes as  input
       any  non-complex  image  format  and  returns  a double at the location
       pointed by out.

       im_deviate(3) finds the standard deviation of an image pointed  by  im.
       Takes as input any non-complex image format and returns a double at the
       location pointed by out.

       im_min(3) finds the the minimum value of the image pointed  by  im  and
       returns  it  at  the location pointed by out.  Takes as input any image
       format and returns a double at the location pointed by out.   If  input
       is complex the min square amplitude (re*re+im*im) is returned.

       im_minpos(3) finds the the minimum value of the image pointed by im and
       returns it at the location pointed by out.  The coordinates of the last
       occurrence  of  min is returned at locations pointed by xpos, ypos.  If
       input is complex the min square amplitude (re*re+im*im) is returned.

       im_max(3) finds the the maximum value of the image pointed  by  im  and
       returns it at the location pointed by out.  If input is complex the max
       square amplitude (re*re+im*im) is returned.

       im_maxpos(3) finds the the maximum value of the image pointed by im and
       returns it at the location pointed by max.  The coordinates of the last
       occurrence of max is returned at locations pointed by xpos,  ypos.   If
       input  is  complex  the max square amplitude (re*re+im*im) and its last
       occurrence is returned.


RETURN VALUE

       All functions return 0 on success and -1 on error.
