# scipy.special.ellipeinc¶

scipy.special.ellipeinc(phi, m) = <ufunc 'ellipeinc'>

Incomplete elliptic integral of the second kind

This function is defined as

$E(\phi, m) = \int_0^{\phi} [1 - m \sin(t)^2]^{1/2} dt$
Parameters: phi : array_like amplitude of the elliptic integral. m : array_like parameter of the elliptic integral. E : ndarray Value of the elliptic integral.

ellipkm1
Complete elliptic integral of the first kind, near m = 1
ellipk
Complete elliptic integral of the first kind
ellipkinc
Incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind
ellipe
Complete elliptic integral of the second kind

Notes

Wrapper for the Cephes [R450] routine ellie.

Computation uses arithmetic-geometric means algorithm.

The parameterization in terms of $$m$$ follows that of section 17.2 in [R451]. Other parameterizations in terms of the complementary parameter $$1 - m$$, modular angle $$\sin^2(\alpha) = m$$, or modulus $$k^2 = m$$ are also used, so be careful that you choose the correct parameter.
