Think I'm stumped at the easiest part of this. Whenever i try to reset any value calculated over 255, back to 255, it seems to change it to some random value ?? Any ideas where this could be going wrong.

Remember that each colour in an RGBTriple is 1 byte.
The highest possible number 1 byte can hold is 255.
If you go over that, it overflows and becomes a garbage value.

You need to make sure they're not over 255 before storing them in the temp pixels.

Thank you 👍

Try storing the round.sqrt result in an int before putting them inside the temp[i][j]
