Definition:Incomplete Elliptic Integral of the First Kind/Definition 2

Special Function

 * $\displaystyle F \left({k, \phi}\right) = \int \limits_0^x \frac {\mathrm d v} {\sqrt{\left({1 - v^2}\right) \left({1 - k^2 v^2}\right)} }$

is the incomplete elliptic integral of the first kind, and is a function of the variables:
 * $k$, defined on the interval $0 < k < 1$
 * $x = \sin \phi$, where $\phi$ is defined on the interval $0 \le \phi \le \pi / 2$.
