Based on work of G.Sookahet [Simple raytracing], here is a more interactive program.

Shading now uses the "Blinn-Phong Shading Model" for handling specular reflection, too.

Note that the geometrical model has been simplified (this implies faster processing-time).
   * The sphere is centered in {0,0,0}, with radius 1.
   * The viewer and the light-source are at infinity (i.e. all light-rays and view-rays have a constant direction)
