What is the datatype of images?
There is no single data type for images as there are many different ways to represent an image in computer memory. At best we can describe all image types as being a binary data type. In order to determine the actual type we must read the first few bytes of data looking for a known signature. Once we know the image type we can read the complete image header correctly and thus obtain the specific information we need to decode the payload properly. Note that we cannot rely on the file extension to determine the data type. Changing a BMP extension to a JPG extension does not change the file's encoding, it merely changes its name (the extension is considered part of the fully-qualified file name). A file's extension simply provides a convenient method for the operating system to associate file types with the applications that use them without having to examine the file itself.

Windows recognizes file by their extension, not by their contents, so double-clicking on this renamed file will either prompt Windows to ask you what to open it in, or it will try to open the file in a program that likely won't understand it.You can rename the file again, with it's proper extension, to fix that.Answer: Of course. But if you are using Windows, and it has option 'hide filename extensions' set, you might encounter difficulties when you try to rename an existing file. Unset this option.
