 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arithmetic-geometric_mean

 Pari has a numeric implementation:
 {{{
 ? 1/agm(1,sqrt(2))
 %1 = 0.83462684167407318628142973279904680900
 }}}
 but Wikipedia provides a closed form integral expression, and if we had
 the "complete elliptic integral of the first kind" this would be even
 simpler.
