Problem with exercise 16

[lrpablo]

The solution.cpp uses items in the parallel_for but the README.md uses ids. I changed the README.md and added the code to the solution.cpp

[DuncanMcBain]

I don't think this is the original intent, here, since it talks about the linear id presumably the intent is to linearise it manually (to demonstrate the difference in striding). Can we change the other side instead to better match this?

Similarly these are 2d ids, not linear ones

Hi, To achieve a better match with as few changes to the code as possible, I think this can be a good solution: ```cpp cgh.parallel_for<image_convolution>( ndRange, [=](sycl::id<2> idx) { auto rowMajorLinearId = idx[1] * inputImgWidth + idx[0]; auto columnMajorLinearId = idx[0] * inputImgWidth + idx[1]; auto globalId(rowMajorLinearId % inputImgWidth, rowMajorLinearId / inputImgWidth); what do you think ?

Consider two alternative ways to linearize the global id: ``` -auto rowMajorLinearId = (idx[1] * width) + idx[0]; // row-major -auto columnMajorLinearId = (idx[0] * height) + idx[1]; // column-major +auto rowMajorLinearId = sycl::id(globalId[0], globalId[1]); I don't think this is the original intent, here, since it talks about the linear id presumably the intent is to linearise it manually (to demonstrate the difference in striding).
