ellipke

Complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kind.

[K, E] = ellipke(m, tol)

Returns K(m) and (optionally) E(m) — the complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kind for parameter m. Used in pendulum-period calculations and gravitational potential of axisymmetric bodies.

[K, E] = ellipke(0.5)
  • ellipj — Jacobi elliptic functions sn, cn, dn.
