An elliptic integral is a type of integral that arises in the calculation of the arc length of an ellipse, as well as in various problems of physics and engineering. Elliptic integrals are generally not expressible in terms of elementary functions, which means that their solutions cannot be represented using basic algebraic operations and standard functions (like polynomials, exponentials, trigonometric functions, etc.).
