Detailed Description

This class implements a directional light source. A directional light source is treated as though it is located infinitely far away from the scene, therefore only the lighting direction needs to be defined. The effect of an infinite location is that the rays of light can be considered parallel by the time they reach an object. An example of a real-world directional light source is the sun.
