- ## Method Details

  - ### describe

    public String describe()
    Deprecated.
    Specified by:
      `describe` in class `PixelMapGen`
    Returns:
      A String describing the mapping generated by your class and any initialization requirements.

  - ### validate

    public boolean validate(int width, int height)
    Deprecated.
    Specified by:
      `validate` in class `PixelMapGen`
    Returns:
      true if the width and height parameters are valid for creating a mapping with this generator, otherwise, false.

  - ### generate

    public int[] generate()
    Deprecated.
    Initializes this.coords, this.pixelMap, this.sampleMap: this is handled by a call to PixelMapGen's setMapsFromCoords() method.
    Specified by:
      `generate` in class `PixelMapGen`
    Returns:
      this.pixelMap, the value for PixelAudioMapper.signalToImageLUT.

  - ### generateCoordinates

    private ArrayList<int[]> generateCoordinates()
    Deprecated.
    Generically-named method that calls the custom coordinate generation method for a particular PixelMapGen child class. Here the method is generateBouCoordinates(). Additional initializations belong here, if required by your coordinate generation method, rather than in the generate() method.
    Returns:
      An ArrayList<int[]> of bitmap coordinates in the order the signal mapping would visit them.

  - ### generateHamiltonianPath

    public ArrayList<int[]> generateHamiltonianPath(int width, int height, int maxAttempts)
    Deprecated.
    Generated by ChatGPT, not quite a solution to a non-trivial problem. ChatGPT: " Thanks for the clarification — and you're absolutely right: generating a truly continuous, non-repeating, 4-connected path that visits every pixel exactly once is a classic problem. What you're asking for is essentially a Hamiltonian path over a grid graph, restricted to 4-connected neighbors. Requirements Recap: Starts at (0, 0) Visits every pixel exactly once Moves only up/down/left/right (4-connected) Never repeats, never jumps Has some randomness in the generated path " This is an NP-Complete computational problem: https://www.researchgate.net/publication/220616693_Hamilton_Paths_in_Grid_Graphs
    Parameters:
      `width` -
      `height` -
    Returns:

  - ### dfs

    private boolean dfs(int x, int y, int width, int height, boolean[][] visited, ArrayList<int[]> path, int endX, int endY)
    Deprecated.

  - ### inBounds

    private boolean inBounds(int x, int y, int width, int height)
    Deprecated.

  - ### shuffledDirections

    private int[][] shuffledDirections()
    Deprecated.

  - ### generateBoustrophedonPath

    private ArrayList<int[]> generateBoustrophedonPath(int width, int height)
    Deprecated.
