What is the proper name for this numerical integration method?

[NSX]

Runga-Kutta or Runge-Kutta

What's the correct name for this method?

On google, there's more hits for the latter, at 193 to 37, but what did you guys learn it as?

My prof calls it Runge-Katta in his lecture notes, and Runga-Katta in the problem set.



Thanks in advance.

[edit]
I misspelled Kutta as Katta
But thanks for pointing out Runga vs. Runge

 

[arildno]

Neither; the correct term is Runge-Kutta.
For example, see the mathworld entry:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/Runge-KuttaMethod.html
I got approx. 223.000 hits on google with the correct name..

Great guys!

Thanks so much!

As for pronounciation, my prof calls it "Runga" Katta too

Or poor Ångström, both of whose vowels get mangled in typical (American, at least) English pronunciation, even if we remember to put in the diacritical marks.

No wonder people usually use nanometers instead nowadays!
