Java color recognition

I happen to have a map, and it has 24 colors in it - I want to store the pixels having different colors (I know the RGB values) - how to do it? Can do it with another prog. language if it is impossible, and then import it somehow to java.

So is it possible, if so - how ?

This may surprise you, but I actually invented the ``that's what's wrong with the world today'' meme. And that, Anon, is what is wrong with this world to date.
