The Ray Tracer Challenge - 018 - The World Struct

Back to the raytracer basics. We are creating a struct to represent a whole Scene aka. a World as well as refactoring some calculations for speed.

Join me, while I implement chapter by chapter from the book "The Ray Tracer Challenge" by Jamis Buck in Rust a language completely new to me.

Come with me on the journey of learning the Rust programming language, while implementing a Ray Tracer in a Test driven fashion, to have fun and (hopefully) create some astonishing rendered graphics.

Let's study the inner workings of a Ray Tracer, and take a look under the hood of the Rust language, while taking on this challenge on a weekly basis.

All the code produced within this series is provided on github, for you to
follow along.
