made up of tiny elements called pixels and each row of pixels is called a scan line
Answer:
What is a pixel?
The pixel — a word invented from picture element — is the basic unit of programmable color on a computer display or in a computer image. Think of it as a logical — rather than a physical — unit.
Pixels are the smallest unit in a digital display. Up to millions of pixels make up an image or video on a device’s screen. Each pixel comprises a subpixel that emits a red, green and blue (RGB) color, which displays at different intensities. The RGB color components make up the gamut of different colors that appear on a display or computer monitor.
When referencing the resolution of a display, numbers like 1920 x 1080 refer to the number of pixels.
