ELLIPTIC_INTEGRAL
Elliptic Integrals


ELLIPTIC_INTEGRAL, a MATLAB library which evaluates elliptic integral functions using Carlson's elliptic functions.

The complete and incomplete elliptic functions of the first, second and third kind can be evaluated, with parameters A (angle in degrees), K (sine of A) or M (the modulus, K^2).

The Jacobi elliptic functions CN(U,M), DN(U,M) and SN(U,M) can be evaluated.
