SpecialFunctionsEllipticK Method

The complete elliptic integral, K(m), of the first kind.

Namespace: CenterSpace.NMath.Core
Assembly: NMath (in NMath.dll) Version: 7.4

Syntax

public static double EllipticK(
	double m
)

Public Shared Function EllipticK ( 
	m As Double
) As Double

public:
static double EllipticK(
	double m
)

static member EllipticK : 
        m : float -> float

Parameters

m Double: The square of the elliptic modulus k, between 0 and 1 inclusive.

Return Value

Double
K(m)

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
ArgumentOutOfRangeException	Parameter m must be between 0 and 1, inclusive.

Remarks

Some implementations of the complete elliptic integral of the first kind use the elliptical modulus, k, instead of m, where m = k * k. The computational accuracy declines as the parameter m approaches 1.
