std:: comp_ellint_2, std:: comp_ellint_2f, std:: comp_ellint_2l

From cppreference.com
double comp_ellint_2 ( double arg ) ;

double comp_ellint_2 ( float arg ) ;
double comp_ellint_2 ( long double arg ) ;
float comp_ellint_2f ( float arg ) ;

long double comp_ellint_2l ( long double arg ) ;
(1)
double comp_ellint_2 ( IntegralType arg ) ;
(2)
2) A set of overloads or a function template accepting an argument of any integral type . Equivalent to (1) after casting the argument to double .

As all special functions, comp_ellint_2 is only guaranteed to be available in <cmath> if __STDCPP_MATH_SPEC_FUNCS__ is defined by the implementation to a value at least 201003L and if the user defines __STDCPP_WANT_MATH_SPEC_FUNCS__ before including any standard library headers.

Parameters

arg - value of a floating-point or integral type

Return value

If no errors occur, value of the complete elliptic integral of the second kind of arg , that is ellint_2(arg, π/2) , is returned.

Error handling

Errors may be reported as specified in math_errhandling .

  • If the argument is NaN, NaN is returned and domain error is not reported.
  • If |arg| > 1 , a domain error may occur.

Notes

Implementations that do not support TR 29124 but support TR 19768, provide this function in the header tr1/cmath and namespace std::tr1 .

An implementation of this function is also available in boost.math .

Example

(works as shown with gcc 6.0)

#define __STDCPP_WANT_MATH_SPEC_FUNCS__ 1
#include <cmath>
#include <iostream>
 
int main()
{
    double hpi = std::acos(-1) / 2;
    std::cout << "E(0) = " << std::comp_ellint_2(0) << '\n'
              << "π/2 = " << hpi << '\n'
              << "E(0.5) = " << std::comp_ellint_2(0.5) << '\n'
              << "E(0.5, π/2) = " << std::ellint_2(0.5, hpi) << '\n';
}

Output:

E(0) = 1.5708
π/2 = 1.5708
E(0.5) = 1.46746
E(0.5, π/2) = 1.46746
