I have seen the issue [Support for extended precision](https://github.com/nolta/Elliptic.jl/issues/11) in [Elliptic.jl](https://github.com/nolta/Elliptic.jl). It references the pull request [Jacobi elliptic functions and complete elliptic integral of the first kind](https://github.com/JuliaMath/SpecialFunctions.jl/pull/79) in [SpecialFunctions.jl](https://github.com/JuliaMath/SpecialFunctions.jl) which is year old and is still opened (could anyone explain why is it so?).

Besides that, I was not able to find anything.  
So, is there a julian realisation of [Elliptic Integrals](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic_integral) with arbitrary precision?

If there is nothing like that, can someone advise a library in other language which would implement this feature and which would be efficient to call from Julia?

[`ArbNumerics.jl`](https://github.com/JeffreySarnoff/ArbNumerics.jl) works.  
see [Elliptic Integrals (complete, incomplete, symmetric or Carlson)](https://jeffreysarnoff.github.io/ArbNumerics.jl/stable/ellipticintegrals/).
