Find_irregular - determines the irregularity of a labeled
binary object
SYNOPSIS
#include <CVIPimage.h>
#include <CVIPmatrix.h>
#include <CVIPfeatures.h>
#include <CVIPdef.h>
float Find_irregular(Image *inputImage, int gray_level)
<inputImage> - a pointer to an Image structure
<gray_level> - the gray value of the labeled object

DESCRIPTION
Irregularity is a measure of the regularity of an object.
Once the perimeter(P) and the area(A) of an object are
known, the irregularity(I) is found:
I = (P^2/4*pi*A)
Irregularity is the inverse of thinness.
This function requires a labeled binary object.
