 Where CFL is a coefficient that ranges from 0<CFL<1. A CFL close to 1, produces the largest time step, but it should be used cautiously during times when errors can be produced, for which a smaller time step should be used. In the God. code described here, the CFL was reduced by 80% for the first 5 time steps of the code.

+Dx is given by the domain length divided by the number of cells.
+
+Smax is found by looping over the grid and checking for the max speed. Smax is computed in the subroutine for calculating dt.
