 zero (black/background) or one (white/foreground).
 We want to count the number of white pixels,
 which can be accomplished with a call to the NumPy function `np.count_nonzero`.
-Then we determine the width and height of the image by using
-the elements of `binary_mask.shape`
-(that is, the dimensions of the NumPy array that stores the image).
 Finally, the density ratio is calculated by dividing the number of white pixels
-by the total number of pixels `w*h` in the image.

 The function returns then root density of the image.
