Typical application of Runge-Kutta is a fourth order method. See related link.
The main difference between Euler and Runge-Kutta methods in numerical analysis is the way they approximate the solution of differential equations. Euler method is a simple and straightforward approach that uses a first-order approximation, while Runge-Kutta method is more complex and uses higher-order approximations to improve accuracy. In general, Runge-Kutta method is more accurate than Euler method for solving differential equations, especially for complex or stiff systems.
To implement the Runge-Kutta 4(5) method in MATLAB for solving differential equations efficiently, you can use the built-in function ode45. This function automatically selects between the fourth and fifth order Runge-Kutta methods based on the error estimates. Simply define your differential equation as a function and provide it to ode45 along with the initial conditions and the desired time span. MATLAB will then solve the differential equation using the Runge-Kutta 4(5) method and provide the solution efficiently.

The Runge-Kutta method is one of several numerical methods of solving differential equations. Some systems motion or process may be governed by differential equations which are difficult to impossible to solve with emperical methods. This is where numerical methods allow us to predict the motion, without having to solve the actual equation.

I may be wrong, but I think the question is kind of ambiguous. Do you mean a numerical integration method, a numerical differentiation method, a pivoting method, ... specify.
Convergence of Runge-Kutta methods for delay differential equations (DDEs) refers to the property that the numerical solution approaches the true solution as the step size tends to zero. Specifically, it involves the method accurately approximating the solution over time intervals, accounting for the effect of delays in the system. For such methods to be convergent, they must satisfy certain conditions related to the stability and consistency of the numerical scheme applied to the DDEs. This ensures that errors diminish as the discretization becomes finer.
To solve ordinary differential equations (ODEs) using two-stage semi-implicit inverse Runge-Kutta schemes, you first discretize the time variable into small steps. In each time step, you compute intermediate stages that incorporate both explicit and implicit evaluations of the ODE, allowing for the treatment of stiff terms. Specifically, the scheme involves solving a system of equations derived from the implicit stages to update the solution at each time step. This method provides better stability properties for stiff problems compared to explicit methods.

The ode45 function in MATLAB uses a numerical method called Runge-Kutta to solve a system of differential equations with multiple variables. It iteratively approximates the solution by evaluating the derivatives at different points within a time interval. This allows ode45 to accurately simulate the behavior of the system over time.
