Constructor Detail

SeamCarver

public SeamCarver(File file,
                  EnergyFunction f,
                  SeamFinder seamFinder)
           throws IOException

Constructs a seam carver by reading the Picture from the file, using the given EnergyFunction and SeamFinder implementations.

Parameters:

file - the file path to the image.

f - the EnergyFunction.
