Python implementation of Ray tracing in one weekend

Python implementation of Peter Shirley's excellent book Ray Tracing In One Weekend. https://raytracing.github.io/

Tested to run ok with PyPy for significant speedup compared to CPython.

Result image from running 24 instances and averaging the output.

Running

It's recommended to use PyPy for running (https://www.pypy.org/)

pypy start.py result 24

This runs the renderer in 24 parallel processes averaging the final result into filename result.ppm.

Output files are portable pixmap format (PPM) files. See here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netpbm

On windows you can use Ifranview to view PPM files directly.
