 This is handled by using a reference counting mechanism. Whenever somebody copies a header of a
 *Mat* object, a counter is increased for the matrix. Whenever a header is cleaned, this counter
 is decreased. When the counter reaches zero the matrix is freed. Sometimes you will want to copy

 For *colorful* ways we have a lot more methods to choose from. Each of them breaks it down to three

 Each of the building components has its own valid domains. This leads to the data type used. How
 we store a component defines the control we have over its domain. The smallest data type possible is
 *char*, which means one byte or 8 bits. This may be unsigned (so can store values from 0 to 255) or
-signed (values from -127 to +127). Although in case of three components this already gives 16
