.classic methods for arcs and length of ellipse.
Credit is given to GNU, to GSL team, and in particular
to Gerard Jungman who developed the Elliptic Integral
functions of the free software library:
GNU GSL Scientific Library.
Computing the arcs of Ellipse through Elliptic Integrals allows
an objective comparison with the results of inverse functions of
mathconic.
Credit is given to Gérard P. Michon of
Numericana,
who gives on the Internet detailed
information about classic exact methods for computing the
circumpherence of an Ellipse.
Computing the circumpherence of an Ellipse through those classic
methods allows an objective comparison with the results of inverse
functions of mathconic.
Michon gives in the above Web Location a QBASIC code for computing
the Ellipse's length by Gauss-Kummer's method and
Cayley's method;
We used logically equivalent C source routines for comparison
in demo programs of mathconic.

Credit is given to Steven E. Brenner for his Perl language library:
cgi-lib.pl.
The cgi-lib.pl is used by the server-side scripts of this
Web Location, in a version slightly modified to include style
information in the generated Html output.
