Synopsis#include <flint/acb_modular.h>
void acb_modular_j(acb_t z, const acb_t tau, slong prec)source

Sets z to Klein's j-invariant, normalised so that j(i) = 1728, computed on the fundamental domain as j(\tau) = 32 (\theta_2^8+\theta_3^8+\theta_4^8)^3 / (\theta_2 \theta_3 \theta_4)^8 with \theta_i = \theta_i(0, \tau). The output is indeterminate unless \operatorname{Im}(\tau) is certainly positive.
