Should you normalize RGB values by 255 or 256?

The article compares normalizing 8-bit RGB values by 255 versus 256 during integer-to-float conversion. It examines quantization errors and bin distribution, concluding that dividing by 255 is preferable for processing existing images, whereas dividing by 256 offers marginal precision benefits only when controlling the entire encoding and decoding pipeline.
