Explanation
GIF (Graphics Interchange Format) is an 8-bit per pixel bitmap format, which means each pixel is represented by 8 bits, yielding a maximum palette of 2^8 = 256 distinct colors per frame. GIF uses a color table (palette) rather than storing full RGB values per pixel, making it efficient for simple graphics, logos, and animations. Because of the 256-color limitation, it is not suitable for photographs but works well for line art and simple animated images.
