I have two text files that should contain a section of text that is the

Which works, but you need to import sys first.
Using
raise SystemExit
avoids the need for an import.

Sorry for not responding earlier to thank all the people who weighed in on

Apart from all the other comments you received, here are my thoughts.
I think you could do one more thing to speed up your calculations and
that is to use a more efficient method. The Reimann sum is not a very
