This is a great book! I recommend it to everyone that's interested in computer graphics. I used this first book as a project to learn Clojure https://github.com/ElHacker/rt-in-weekend-clojure I'm slowly going through the 3 books series https://github.com/RayTracing/raytracing.github.io/ This past weekend I finished the second book "The Next Week", also implemented it in Clojure https://github.com/ElHacker/rt-next-week-clojure It's been a great source for learning!
