I'm learning python and am trying to learn about manipulating images. I want to rescale (downscale) a 2D graysacle image to a 1D vector (array of single row/column). In my test code, when I rescale the image, the output values in the array are in decimal (float) format. But I want to rescale and keep the values in the 1D array as integers. Can someone please help/guide me?
This is my code:
#Testing Image to vector
#Importing required functionality
import skimage.io as io
import numpy as np
from skimage.transform import rescale
#read image
image=io.imread("https://www.usna.edu/Users/cs/wcbrown/courses/F14IC210/lab/l09/cat.jpg")
#print image
print (image)
#rescale to 50%
small_im = rescale(image,0.5)
#print the rescaled image
print(small_im)
#manipulate the array
x=np.array(small_im)
#convert to 1D vector
y=np.concatenate(x)
print (y)
#print each value in the 1D vector in a new line. Just to see how far it would go
for i in y:
print (i, end='\n')
A snippet of the output I get is this(it goes way further due to the loop):
[[ 8 8 9 ... 12 11 11]
[ 8 8 9 ... 12 11 11]
[ 7 7 8 ... 12 11 11]

After trying and googling, I've found the answer. At least, in my context, it is what I was trying to achieve.
Solution code:
#solution to converting to 1D vector
#Importing required functionality
import numpy as np
from PIL import Image
#Opening Image and resizing to 10X10 for easy viewing
image_test = np.array(Image.open('1.png').resize((10,10))) #note: I used a local image
#print image
print (image_test)
#manipulate the array
x=np.array(image_test)
#convert to 1D vector
y=np.concatenate(x)
print (y)
#print each value in the 1D vector in a new line. Just to see how far it would go
for i in y:
print (i, end='\n')
Desired sample output (due to the loop it goes further):
