 +==== Kick Off Questions ====
 +  - Going back over your integral set up from last time, what were the steps that you took to set up the integral?
 +  - How would those steps need to change if you were to use code to set up the integral? What steps would stay the same?
 +  - Read over the main problem & given code. Draw out a prediction of what you want the code to give you in the end.

 The storms over Lakeview have gotten worse, with an almost permanent pitch black cloud system hovering overhead. The S.P.A.R.T.A.N. scientists have deployed a Mapping N$\vec{E}$twork Sensor Array (MNSA) around Stormchaser HQ to try to understand what's happening.  While they appreciated the model of the cloud's electric field you created for them two weeks ago, the data they're collecting simply don't match the models predictions.  They've concluded that modeling storm clouds as point charges was, in fact, problematic, and a better model for the thundercloud needs to be produced to understand how it is functioning. The storms over Lakeview have gotten worse, with an almost permanent pitch black cloud system hovering overhead.
