Description
Summary:This paper introduces the elliptic package of R routines, for numerical calculation of elliptic and related functions. Elliptic functions furnish interesting and instructive examples of many ideas of complex analysis, and the package illustrates these numerically and visually. A statistical application in fluid mechanics is presented.
