-For initial data that consists of left and right states separated by a discontinuity at position x0, one would expect the generation of non-linear waves to originate at the discontinuity, and spread outward from the discontinuity over time. Outside of the region in causal contact with the generated waves, the initial condition is not affected. 
+For initial data that consists of left and right states separated by a discontinuity at position x0, one would expect the generation of non-linear waves to originate at the discontinuity, and spread outward from the discontinuity over time. Outside of the region in causal contact with the generated waves, the initial condition is not affected. Indeed, this is what happens, as can be seen below in the results section.
