Objectives The city has been set for the exchange of the product. However, before you could get the information, your contact was compromised. You have nothing left but an email with the cryptic message “locate a line of three stars and that shall point the way” and a file attachment (included in the zip file). If you know your contact, and you do, you know your contact is lazy and will not hide the information too well. It is most likely dropped in the file somewhere in byte sized chunks. Discussion and Deliverable Bitmap has the following format. Information about the file is located in the first 54 bytes of the file. Then after 54 bytes, pixel information is listed for each color value. The city name is hidden somewhere in the pixel data. The deliverable of this lab falls in three parts. First part is deciphering the bitmap format and answering the following questions. The second part is allocating space in heap and loading the file information into the space allocated. The third part is shifting through the file contents to find the rendezvous city.
