N2  - This paper reports on the historical development of the Runge-Kutta methods beginning with the simple Euler method up to an embedded 13-stage method. Moreover, the design and the use of those methods under error order, stability and computation time conditions is edited for students of numerical analysis at undergraduate level. The second part presents applications in natural sciences, compares different methods and illustrates some of the difficulties of numerical solutions.
