how do you pronounce 'tuple'?

Yes, silly question, but it keeps me up at night.  :)

I know it comes from the suffix -tuple, which makes me think it's 
pronounced as 'toople', but I've seen (at m-w.com) that the first 
pronunciation option is 'tuhple', so I wasn't sure. Maybe it's both, but 
which is most prevalent?

Thanks! Now time to go back to reading the chapter on tuples...
