IMAGE_DOUBLE
Double the number of rows and columns in an image file


IMAGE_DOUBLE, a MATLAB program which modifies an image file by doubling the number of rows and columns. When displayed, this should result in an image that appears twice as wide and high, with 4 times as many pixels.

In general, a better way to get a bigger picture is simply to use the original file, but increase the display size by stretching or rescaling. Here, we just want a simple way to make an image that will ``automatically'' display itself with doubled dimensions.

This doubling procedure may be repeated. The function image_decimate() will reverse the doubling operation.
