means for determining, as part of using PDPC, a row that is above the current block;

means for determining, as part of using PDPC, an x-coordinate in the determined row, wherein the x-coordinate in the determined row is based on the angle of the angular intra prediction mode; and

means for determining, as part of using PDPC, a reference sample of the one or more reference samples based on the determined row and the determined x-coordinate,

wherein the means for determining, as part of using PDPC, the x-coordinate in the determined row comprises:

means for determining, as part of using PDPC, one of a cotangent or tangent of the angle of the angular intra prediction mode; and

means for determining, as part of using PDPC, the x-coordinate in the determined row based on one of the cotangent or tangent of the angle of the angular intra prediction mode, an x-coordinate of the prediction sample, and a y-coordinate of the prediction sample.

44. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining, as part of the PDPC, one of the cotangent or tangent of the angle of the angular intra prediction mode is based on at least one value stored in a table.

45. The method of claim 5 , wherein the determining, as part of the PDPC, one of the cotangent or tangent of the angle of the angular intra prediction mode is based on at least one value stored in a table.
