Runge-Kutta Method/Evidence
Method evidence record

Runge-Kutta Method

The Runge-Kutta Method is a family of explicit numerical techniques for solving ordinary differential equations (ODEs) developed independently by Carl Runge in 1895 and Martin Kutta in 1901. The fourth-order variant (RK4) is one of the most widely used algorithms in computational science and engineering for time-stepping problems.
