// These shaders are my implementation of the raytracer described in the (excellent) 
// book "Raytracing in one weekend" [1] by Peter Shirley (@Peter_shirley). I have tried 
// to follow the code from his book as much as possible, but I had to make some changes 
// to get it running in a fragment shader:
//
// - There are no classes (and methods) in glsl so I use structs and functions instead. 
//   Inheritance is implemented by adding a type variable to the struct and adding ugly 
//   if/else statements to the (not so overloaded) functions.
// - The scene description is procedurally implemented in the world_hit function to save
//   memory.
// - The color function is implemented using a loop because it is not possible to have a 
//   recursive function call in glsl.
// - Only one sample per pixel per frame is calculated. Samples of all frames are added 
//   in Buffer A and averaged in the Image tab.
//
// You can find the raytracer / pathtracer in Buffer A.
