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)

1) Computes the complete elliptic integral of the second kind of arg.

4) 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,/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)

Run this code

#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'
              << "/2 = " << hpi << '\n'
              << "E(0.5) = " << std::comp_ellint_2(0.5) << '\n'
              << "E(0.5, /2) = " << std::ellint_2(0.5, hpi) << '\n';
}

Output:

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