Yes - I am very confused too! And I fear I will not be alone :-( The code has jacobi_zeta(T1 k, T2 phi) but the implementation has the reverse order...

I've looked at this a bit more, building a toy example, and now I am > totally_confused. Naive, as ever, I expected it to follow the Mathworld, http://mathworld.wolfram.com/JacobiZetaFunction.html so https://www.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=N%5BJacobiZeta%5B0.5,+0.5%5D,50%5D...

OK – sorry- I’ve finally got my head round this. I can only cope with one source of confusion at a time ☹ But I doubt if I am the...

Thanks for both the graph and code to generate, (very pretty ;-) and mostly for confirmation of my suspicion that the graph example was muddying the already very cloudy water....

[Boost elliptic functions introduction](https://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_70_0/libs/math/doc/html/math_toolkit/ellint/ellint_intro.html) says "This implementation uses k throughout: this matches the requirements of the Technical Report on C++ Library Extensions. However, you should be extra careful when using...

Looks a really promising start. It would be really nice if the Real defaults could be vector and all other parameters double. This would make it appear to work quite...

I have a vague recollection that we had a complaint similar to this many years ago. In the end we decided to keep the apparently redundant check because there were...

> @jzmaddock , @pabristow : For scalar distribution, using free functions to compute kurtosis, range, so on, is just fine. But for vector types, following this pattern is getting a...

Something has gone wrong ;-) (It often does...) Special cases have always proved good, especially if the result should be 'exact'. https://docs.scipy.org/doc/scipy/reference/generated/scipy.stats.dirichlet.html looks recent (Last updated on Dec 19, 2019)....
