Extended ASCII Art using Python and PIL Library.

This program first converts a normal image that is having RGB colour code (256*256*256) to gray-scale code (256 )that is only having code in terms of gray. So based on the color code of gray like the first 32 code will be given dark black box next 32 to 64 will be dark color box of relatively smaller size and so on. And that's how image is converted to ASCII art.

ASCII art is a graphic design technique that uses computers for presentation and consists of pictures pieced together from the 95 printable (from a total of 128) characters defined by the ASCII Standard from 1963 and ASCII compliant character sets with proprietary extended characters (beyond the 128 characters of standard 7-bit ASCII). The term is also loosely used to refer to text based visual art in general. ASCII art can be created with any text editor, and is often used with free-form languages. Most examples of ASCII art require a fixed-width font (non-proportional fonts, as on a traditional typewriter) such as Courier for presentation.

This program is created using the image processing library PIL.
