 If you apply the above algorithm to each pixel in the image, the result should look like a blurry, out-of-focus version of the original.
 
+### 5.) The Vignette Algorithm
+
+The vignette filter gives an image a cinematic look by gradually darkening its corners. 
+
+**Algorithm:**
+1. Compute the center of the image (cx, cy).
+2. Calculate the maximum distance from the center to any corner (max_dis).
+3. For each pixel at (i, j):
+   - Calculate the Euclidean distance from this pixel to the center: dist = sqrt((j - cx)^2 + (i - cy)^2)
+   - Compute a vignette factor: vig = 1.0 - (dist / max_dis)
+   - Clamp vig between 0.0 (fully dark) and 1.0 (original color).
+   - Multiply the pixel's R, G, B values by vig to darken farther-away pixels more thoroughly.
+
+If you apply this algorithm, your resulting image will have gently darkened corners and an undisturbed/sunnier center.
+

+
+### Usage
+
+To apply a filter via command-line:
+- `g`: grayscale
+- `s`: sepia
+- `r`: reflect
+- `b`: blur
+- `i`: invert
+- `v`: vignette
+
+For vignette:
+```
+./filter v input.bmp output.bmp
+```
+You can also chain multiple filters by supplying multiple tags (e.g., `./filter vg input.bmp output.bmp` for vignette then grayscale).
+
 You should not modify any of the function signatures, nor should you modify any other files other than helpers.c.
 
 Consider the following grid of pixels, where we’ve numbered each pixel.
