Draws a sphere.
A sphere is a 3D shape with triangular faces that connect to form a round surface. Spheres with few faces look like crystals. Spheres with many faces have smooth surfaces and look like balls.
The first parameter, radius, is optional. If a Number is passed, as in sphere(20), it sets the radius of the sphere. By default, radius is 50.
The second parameter, detailX, is also optional. If a Number is passed, as in sphere(20, 5), it sets the number of triangle subdivisions to use along the x-axis. All 3D shapes are made by connecting triangles to form their surfaces. By default, detailX is 24.
The third parameter, detailY, is also optional. If a Number is passed, as in sphere(20, 5, 2), it sets the number of triangle subdivisions to use along the y-axis. All 3D shapes are made by connecting triangles to form their surfaces. By default, detailY is 16.
Note: sphere() can only be used in WebGL mode.
