>These two similarly-named Hamming and Hanning (more properly referred to as Hann) window functions both have a sinusoidal shape. The difference between them is that the Hanning window touches zero at both ends, removing any discontinuity. The Hamming window stops just shy of zero, meaning that the signal will still have a slight discontinuity.
The Hamming Window is named after Richard Hamming.
But the Hanning Window is named after Julius von Hann, and lots of people just throw in an extra "ing" to make them sound alike, but its excruciatingly correct name is Hann Window.
But it seems fitting that they're almost but not quite alike, and so is their spelling. Maybe for symmetry there should be a Halling Window that stops just below zero.
