<p>
There are twelve Jacobi Elliptic functions, of which the three copolar functions
<span class="emphasis"><em>sn</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>cn</em></span> and <span class="emphasis"><em>dn</em></span>
are the most important as the other nine can be computed from these three
<a href="#ftn.math_toolkit.jacobi.jac_over.f0" class="footnote" name="math_toolkit.jacobi.jac_over.f0"><sup class="footnote">[2]</sup></a> <a href="#ftn.math_toolkit.jacobi.jac_over.f1" class="footnote" name="math_toolkit.jacobi.jac_over.f1"><sup class="footnote">[3]</sup></a> <a href="#ftn.math_toolkit.jacobi.jac_over.f2" class="footnote" name="math_toolkit.jacobi.jac_over.f2"><sup class="footnote">[4]</sup></a>.
</p>
<p>
These functions each take two arguments: a parameter, and a variable as described
below.
</p>
<p>
Like all elliptic functions these can be parameterised in a number of ways:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem">
In terms of a parameter <span class="emphasis"><em>m</em></span>.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
In terms of the elliptic modulus <span class="emphasis"><em>k</em></span> where <span class="emphasis"><em>m
= k<sup>2</sup></em></span>.
</li>
<li class="listitem">
In terms of the modular angle &#945;, where <span class="emphasis"><em>m = sin<sup>2</sup> &#8201;&#945;</em></span>.
</li>
</ul></div>
<p>
In our implementation, these functions all take the elliptic modulus <span class="emphasis"><em>k</em></span>
as the parameter.
</p>
<p>
In addition the variable <span class="emphasis"><em>u</em></span> is sometimes expressed as
an amplitude &#966;, in our implementation we always use <span class="emphasis"><em>u</em></span>.
</p>
<p>
Finally note that our functions all take the elliptic modulus <span class="emphasis"><em>k</em></span>
as the <span class="bold"><strong>first</strong></span> argument - this is for alignment
with the Elliptic Integrals (but is different from other implementations,
for example Mathworks).
</p>
<p>
A simple example comparing use of <a href="http://www.wolframalpha.com/" target="_top">Wolfram
Alpha</a> with Boost.Math (including much higher precision using Boost.Multiprecision)
is <a href="../../../../example/jacobi_zeta_example.cpp" target="_top">jacobi_zeta_example.cpp</a>.
</p>
<p>
There are twelve functions for computing the twelve individual Jacobi elliptic
functions: <a class="link" href="jacobi_cd.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function cd">jacobi_cd</a>,
<a class="link" href="jacobi_cn.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function cn">jacobi_cn</a>, <a class="link" href="jacobi_cs.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function cs">jacobi_cs</a>,
<a class="link" href="jacobi_dc.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function dc">jacobi_dc</a>, <a class="link" href="jacobi_dn.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function dn">jacobi_dn</a>,
<a class="link" href="jacobi_ds.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function ds">jacobi_ds</a>, <a class="link" href="jacobi_nc.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function nc">jacobi_nc</a>,
<a class="link" href="jacobi_nd.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function nd">jacobi_nd</a>, <a class="link" href="jacobi_ns.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function ns">jacobi_ns</a>,
<a class="link" href="jacobi_sc.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function sc">jacobi_sc</a>, <a class="link" href="jacobi_sd.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function sd">jacobi_sd</a>
and <a class="link" href="jacobi_sn.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic Function sn">jacobi_sn</a>.
</p>
<p>
They are all called as for example:
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">jacobi_cs</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">k</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="identifier">u</span><span class="special">);</span>
</pre>
<p>
Note however that these individual functions are all really thin wrappers
around the function <a class="link" href="jacobi_elliptic.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic SN, CN and DN">jacobi_elliptic</a>
which calculates the three copolar functions <span class="emphasis"><em>sn</em></span>, <span class="emphasis"><em>cn</em></span>
and <span class="emphasis"><em>dn</em></span> in a single function call.

If you need more than one of these functions for a given set of arguments,
it's most efficient to use <a class="link" href="jacobi_elliptic.html" title="Jacobi Elliptic SN, CN and DN">jacobi_elliptic</a>.
