 Two versions of PCGA are implemented in this package
 
 - `pcgadirect`, which uses full matrices and direct solvers during iterations
-- `pcgalsqr`, which uses low rank representations of the matrices combined with iterative solvers during iterations
+- `pcgalsqr`, which uses low-rank representations of the matrices combined with iterative solvers during iterations
 
 The RGA method, `rga`, can use either of these approaches using the keyword argument. That is, by doing `rga(...; pcgafunc=GeostatInversion.pcgadirect)` or `rga(...; pcgafunc=GeostatInversion.pcgalsqr)`.
