Resolution

Robert P. Munafo, 2002 Apr 18.

"Resolution" can refer to:

1. the number of pixels in an image: the resolution of the image.

2. the ability to distinguish small features, a function of the accuracy, precision, or number of significant digits used in calculations: the resolution of single-precision floating-point math.

See also accuracy, aliasing errors, coordinates, deep, magnification.
