<p>
These two functions evaluate the incomplete elliptic integral of the second
kind <span class="emphasis"><em>E(&#966;, k)</em></span> and its complete counterpart <span class="emphasis"><em>E(k)
= E(&#960;/2, k)</em></span>.
</p>
<p>
<span class="inlinemediaobject"><img src="../../../graphs/ellint_2.svg" align="middle"></span>
</p>
<p>
The return type of these functions is computed using the <a class="link" href="../result_type.html" title="Calculation of the Type of the Result"><span class="emphasis"><em>result
type calculation rules</em></span></a> when T1 and T2 are different types:
when they are the same type then the result is the same type as the arguments.

</h5>
<p>
These functions are computed using only basic arithmetic operations, so there
isn't much variation in accuracy over differing platforms. Note that only
results for the widest floating point type on the system are given as narrower
types have <a class="link" href="../relative_error.html#math_toolkit.relative_error.zero_error">effectively
zero error</a>. All values are relative errors in units of epsilon.

The tests use a mixture of spot test values calculated using the online calculator
