large oscillations near the interval ends when high-degree polynomials interpolate a smooth function at equally spaced points, so error grows with degree.

In numerical analysis, Runge's phenomenon refers to large oscillations near the interval ends when high-degree polynomials interpolate a smooth function at equally spaced points, so error grows with degree. This meaning comes from Epperson (1987) in The American Mathematical Monthly.[1]
