P is the square root of a polynomial of degree 3 or 4 with no repeated roots,
P is the square root of a polynomial of degree 3 or 4 with no repeated roots,

An elliptic integral is any function f which can be expressed in the form

   x
f(x) = R(t, P(t)) dt
   c

where R is a rational function of its two arguments, P is the square root of a polynomial of degree 3 or 4 with no repeated roots, and c is a constant.
