Note that since `iview` is a transform matrix, it contains translation, rotation, and scale factors. Be careful in how you use it on specific objects, and take a look at `lib/mat4.h` to see what functions are available for the `Mat4` object. Once you have implemented `Pathtracer::trace_pixel`, `Rect::sample` and `Camera::generate_ray`ou should now have a camera that can shoot rays into the scene! See the **Raytracing Visualization** below to confirm this. -- GitLab
