FORMULA
Expansion of (1 - k^2)^(1/8) = k'^(1/4) in powers of q = exp(-Pi K'/K).
Expansion of (theta_4(q) / theta_3(q))^(1/2) = (phi(-q) / phi(q))^(1/2) = chi(-q) / chi(q) = psi(-q) / psi(q) = f(-q) / f(q) where phi(), chi(), psi(), f() are Ramanujan theta functions.
Expansion of eta(q)^2 eta(q^4) / eta(q^2)^3 in powers of q.
