Is it round robin or round-robin?
Does round robin have a hyphen in it (as in round-robin)? Our instinct is to say no hyphen, but some people do spell it "round-robin." If you want specific guidelines, we might recommend using "round robin" when it's a noun (as in "We're using round robin for these assignments"), and "round-robin" when it's an adjective (as in "We're moving to a round-robin distribution approach"). But generally, simpler is probably better so we're sticking with "round robin" with no hyphen.
How do you spell it?
